Description

GeoTrap is a natural silicate mineral sand intended for use in the GeoTrap Nutrient Filter box. The unique feature of GeoTrap is its ability to capture and retain nutrients effectively within itself, thus preventing water and groundwater contamination and eutrophication.

Features & Advantages of GeoTrap

  • Binds and retains the valuable nutrients for plant growth (such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and magnesium)
  • Prevents absorption of harmful elements into the land or a water body, even in the case of heavy rain or watering
  • Prevents eutrophication of waterbodies

GeoTrap Nutrient Trap was designed at the University of Åbo Akademi in Finland to prevent nitrogen and phosphorus that may be present in the leachate or seep liquid from the WooWoo GT composting toilets from getting into the environment.

GeoTrap Nutrient Trap, once loaded with nutrients, is an excellent and natural way to recycle nutrients needed by plants and trees back into the ecosystem as a fertiliser. Just remove the used mineral on an annual basis (or more regularly for public use toilets) and place it in a compost bin, or apply sparingly around non-edible plants and trees where the locked-in nutrients will be bio-available.

GeoTrap binds the nutrients in such a way that they are not water-soluble, nor will they evaporate into the air. Once in the ground, they are bio-available to plants and fungi.

GeoTrap mineral is supplied as a 5kg bag – enough to replace the contents of the GeoTrap Filter

Delivery to a non-UK address? No Problem!

Since Brexit, the process of selling to non-UK customers (including those in Ireland!) has changed but we don’t want our customers to pay more so we are offering to refund your customs duties and admin fees.

VAT generally evens itself out:
We reduce our price when selling to non-UK countries. This is because we don’t charge UK VAT (20%) for customers outside the UK.

The VAT rate is typically similar in other countries, around 20%, so the saving made by not paying UK VAT is generally offset by paying local VAT upon import.

Customs duty/admin fees:
Keep your receipt for customs or admin fees and send it to us. We’ll refund these extra fees back to your account.

In short…
Non-UK customers shouldn’t have to pay more for their products than our UK customers.

If you’re unsure about anything, please contact our friendly team.
