Includes a state-of-the art closed-loop dust system
The Andersons, Inc. Turf & Specialty Group is pleased to announce the successful completion of a $1.3 million upgrade to the Maumee, Ohio based plant that produces dispersing granule (DG) fertilizer and related products, including premium brands Contec DG®, Nutri DG® and Humic DG™, an OMRI certified product. These products are part of the Group’s professional business products and are shipped worldwide.
