Ostara secures certified organic registration of recovered nutrients for crop production

Ostara is a clean water company that recovers valuable nutrients from used water streams. The company's proprietary technology, the Pearl® Process, recovers otherwise polluting nutrients, phosphorus and nitrogen, from municipal and industrial water streams, and transforms them into a slow release, eco-friendly fertilizer marketed as Crystal Green®. The technology helps reduce costs, meet nutrient discharge limits and produce clean water, while the fertilizer provides a new source of revenue for municipalities. Crystal Green (5-28-0 +10% Mg) is a slow release nitrogen, phosphorus and magnesium fertilizer that is used in blends by growers throughout North America. Providing full-season nutrient availability to plants and crops, Crystal Green is more efficient and cost-effective compared to conventional phosphorus fertilizers. The company currently has four commercial nutrient recovery facilities in operation throughout North America, and four more under construction, including its first European facility, in London, UK. Ostara is headquartered in Vancouver, BC and has offices in Tampa, FL and Basel, Switzerland.
