If you’re looking to improve water efficiency, stabilize soils, and lift plant survival across challenging environments, super absorbent polymers (SAPs) are a proven, scalable tool. SOCO focuses on biodegradable, non‑toxic hydrogels engineered to retain water in the root zone, reduce leaching, and enhance nutrient use—helping agriculture, landscaping, and industrial users achieve more with less water.

 

What sets these SAPs apart

Sustainable by design: Safety‑tested, non‑toxic, degradable materials that support long‑term soil and ecosystem health.

Targeted solutions: Formulations aligned to key agronomic goals—soil structure, salt/alkali resistance, water‑use efficiency, fertilizer efficiency, seedling transplant success, and even desert planting.

Global capability: Established in 2009 with 7+ international warehouses, a network in 120+ countries/regions, top export volume for 15 consecutive years, and 30+ certifications (SGS, ISO, IATA).

 

Solution pillars

Soil structure: Improve aggregation and porosity to support root growth and consistent yields.

Salt and alkali resistance: Buffer moisture in saline‑alkali soils, reducing dry‑down stress and nutrient losses.

Water use efficiency: Store and release water directly to roots, cutting irrigation frequency and stabilizing growth during heat or wind.

Fertilizer efficiency: Slow release, less leaching—keep nutrients in the root zone longer.

Seedling transplanting efficiency: Boost survival by maintaining a moisture halo around young roots.

Desert planting efficiency: Extend establishment windows and support vegetation in arid, sandy profiles.

 

Application areas

Agriculture Hydrogel: Field crops, vegetables, horticulture, greening projects, lawn transplant, eucalyptus cultivation, and desert planting.

Consumer Hydrogel: Animal litter and chick rehydration.

Integration with fertilizers: Mix or coat to pair water retention with controlled nutrient availability.

 

Product families

- Potassium Polyacrylate

- Sodium Polyacrylate

- Soil Wetting Agents

- Signature lines: TRPSORB™, FERTISORB™, HORTISORB™, GREENSORB™, CROPSORB™, SATSORB™, BIOSORB™, ANISORB™

 

Why it works

Hydrogels create micro‑reservoirs that capture irrigation and rainfall, then release moisture as the surrounding soil dries.

This reduces runoff and deep leaching, improves fertilizer residence time near roots, and stabilizes EC and moisture profiles for healthier growth.

In saline‑alkali or desert conditions, moisture buffering helps maintain root function, resilience, and establishment.

 

Getting started

Match solution to goal: soil structure, salinity stress, water efficiency, nutrient efficiency, transplanting, or desert planting.

Choose the right product family and particle size for your crop, substrate, and irrigation method.
