Excellent at retaining water and increasing the richness of your soil, TerraCottem Turf is one of the most popular products in the TerraCottem range and brings a variety of benefits to every patch of turf on which it’s applied.
TerraCottem Turf contains zeolite, a natural volcanic mineral that is renowned for its absorption properties. While this alone would ensure that your soil and lawn are far better at retaining water, TerraCottem Turf also features a number of fertilisers and humic acids that enhance this further, while also strengthening soil structure and microbiological activity. All of these features mean that grass will grow quicker, with better root growth and a higher quality of turf no matter what you’re using it for.
Benefits of TerraCottem Complement:
Due to its high resistance to stress, TerraCottem Turf is ideal for golf and sports grass. With the richness it adds into the grass it is also favoured for more prestigious gardens as well.
All of our TerraCottem products come in 5 and 10 kilogram tubs for the professional gardener, or the 20 kilogram bags may be more suitable for larger commercial projects.
TerraCottem can be used throughout the year however for the best results we do recommend we recommend mixing it in to your soil during more favourable weather conditions, when it is mainly dry. It is important to store TerraCottem under cover in a cool and dry location.
At Inturf, as well as being committed to providing our customers with the best turfing options in the UK, we also understand that we have a responsibility to the world around us. With this in mind, we ensure that the products we supply always enhance the environment, something that can be seen with TerraCottem Turf, thanks to the biodiversity it creates.

Turf should ideally be laid as soon as possible after delivery, especially during the summer months (April to September), to ensure optimal freshness and health. If turf is left rolled up in the heat it can sustain turf heating.
Immediately after installation, turf should be watered thoroughly, both in the morning and evening, for approximately one hour each time, for a period of 28 days unless there is significant rainfall. Read our blog on ‘Watering newly laid turf’ for more information.
It is recommended to lay the turf as soon as it is delivered, particularly during warmer months, to prevent drying out and ensure successful establishment.
