Nachurs Alpine Solutions

By MarionMade! on October 6, 2017

NACHURS ALPINE SOLUTIONS

Built on quality, integrity, and innovation, Nachurs pioneered liquid fertilizer – first in the United States – in Marion in 1946 and, later, in Canada in 1973 – formulated to meet the nutritional demands of crops and growing conditions on both sides of the border. In 1998, The Na-Churs Plant Food Company acquired Alpine Plant Foods Corp. and formed Nachurs Alpine Solutions, as they are known today. They created their industrial division (NASi) in the year 2000 because of their state-of-the-art manufacturing and transportation infrastructure.

The Na-Churs Plant Food Company captivated growers’ attention and revolutionized farming practices by developing seed-safe, liquid phosphate starters that kick-start strong, early root growth and maximize crop yields. Today, an increasing number of farmers in every state and province rely on their in-furrow fertilizer starters, fertigation products, foliar nutrition, and micronutrients on nearly every row of crops, fruits, and vegetables.

Nachurs Apline Solutions Industrial® (NASi) products are produced with many of the same premium quality raw materials and manufacturing processes as their agricultural products. Serving several of the largest companies within the North American oil and gas sector, along with commercial airports and other industrial customers, NASi sales are a third of the overall company’s revenues and they are continually developing new products.

Growing from the original company in Marion and still strong here, Nachurs Alpine Solutions now has a presence in Saskatchewan, Indiana, Ontario, Iowa and Louisiana.  It is proud to be MarionMade! and to continue to grow in Marion, Ohio.
