The World’s First Dual-Action Soil Penetrant and Structural Conditioner (Cationic + Non-Ionic)

The Problem

Your soil is compacted, crusted, boggy, or bone-dry, and it never seems to change.

Gypsum just sits on top. Wetting agents offer temporary relief. Water runs off or gets stuck.

Cracks form in summer. Puddles return in winter. Inputs go to waste.

If your soil is hardsetting, dispersive, sodic, or just won’t absorb water, you’ve got a structure problem — not just a moisture problem.

The Fix

AQUA DIRT™ Clay Breaker is not a band-aid. It’s a breakthrough.

This is the world’s first dual-action soil penetrant and structural conditioner using a cationic and non-ionic surfactant system. It moves fast through compacted layers, unlocks soil structure from within, and lays down long-lasting improvement.

It doesn’t just wet the soil.

It opens it.

It holds that change.

And it makes your other amendments — like gypsum and lime — go deeper and work harder.

What It Does

  • Opens hardsetting, dispersive, and sodic soils
  • Unlocks soil structure at the electrochemical level
  • Improves infiltration, percolation, and aeration
  • Flushes sodium and frees bound nutrients
  • Enhances the movement and efficiency of gypsum, lime, and organic matter
  • Reduces surface sealing, runoff, and waste

Who It’s For

  • Turf managers battling sealed surfaces, dry patch, or bog zones
  • Vineyards and orchards needing reliable deep moisture zones
  • Horticulture and landscaping professionals working with tight soils
  • Broadacre and pasture operations restoring infiltration and root penetration
  • Gardeners and councils managing clay-heavy public and private land
  • Mine site managers, land care groups, and remediation contractors tackling degraded soils, erosion risk, or compaction on disturbed terrain

When to Apply

  • Monthly or as needed in high-traffic turf or problem areas
  • Seasonally in cropping, vineyards, or home gardens for sustained improvement
  • After tilling, ripping, or soil disturbance, to maximise movement
  • Pre-planting, to open root zones and boost amendment efficiency
  • Alongside gypsum, lime, or compost to transport them deeper

Where It Works Best

  • Clay and heavy loam soils
  • Sodic or dispersive profiles
  • Compacted sports fields, vineyards, and paddocks
  • Crusted topsoils and areas with poor drainage
  • Anywhere gypsum fails to move

How to Use

Standard Application Rate:

  • Apply 2–5 mL per square metre
  • Dilute with enough water for even coverage (e.g. 2–5 mL in 1 L per m²)
  • Apply to moist soil
  • Use through fertigation, boom sprayers, knapsack, or hose-on

Per Litre Coverage

1 L = 200–500 m², depending on rate

 

When to Reapply

  • Monthly in high-stress turf areas
  • Seasonally for farms, gardens, or vineyards
  • Reapply only if soil is disturbed or signs of compaction return

How to Use by Sector

Turf & Sports Fields

  • Apply monthly or after coring/topdressing
  • Targets dry patch, black layer, compaction, or hydrophobic zones
  • Irrigate after application for best movement

Horticulture & Gardens

  • Use seasonally or during pre-plant preparation
  • Apply after composting or tilling
  • Supports deeper watering and stronger plant establishment

Vineyards & Orchards

  • Apply seasonally or after mechanical soil work
  • Enhances water holding in rows and reduces runoff
  • Helps carry nutrients deeper into the root zone

Broadacre & Pasture

  • Apply before sowing or after tillage
  • Combine with gypsum or lime
  • Supports better emergence, root access, and rain infiltration

Landscaping & Public Spaces

  • Use in renovation, establishment, or dry, compacted areas
  • Combine with irrigation or wet weather for better movement
  • Improves soil performance under foot and traffic stress

Degraded Land, Mine Sites & Erosion Control

  • Apply during early-stage remediation or soil stabilisation efforts
  • Use after mechanical disturbance, landform reshaping, or initial topsoil placement
  • Helps bind loose soils, reduce crusting, and improve early infiltration
  • Slows surface runoff and improves water retention in highly degraded profiles
  • Combine with gypsum, lime, or organic amendments to support revegetation and erosion prevention

Real-World Results

Use Case

Result

Golf greens

Reduced crusting and improved water movement in high-traffic zones

Vineyards

Increased soil infiltration and amendment efficiency

Sports turf

Resolved bogging and puddling in problem zones

Horticulture beds

Faster establishment, deeper watering, reduced compaction

Cropping fields

Reduced runoff, better seed-soil contact, improved plant uptake

Pro Tip

Apply after ripping or tilling when the surface is exposed, this gives the product full contact with compacted layers.

Tank-mix with gypsum or lime for maximum structural benefit.

Follow with irrigation or rainfall to help drive it down.

Summary

AQUA DIRT™ Clay Breaker is not a wetting agent and not just liquid gypsum.

It’s a next-generation structural unlocker — combining cationic charge with non-ionic movement to open tight, waterlogged, or dispersive soils from the inside out.

One pass. Low dose. Lasting change.

Roots reach deeper. Water goes further. Soil finally breathes.
