DAP: diammonium phosphate

18-46-0 — the reference phosphate product for planting and starter application, supplied in wholesale volumes to distributors and industrial buyers.

What the desk supplies

Diammonium phosphate (DAP, 18-46-0) in bulk and big bags, sourced from producers whose standards the desk has verified. Contracted parameters typically cover nutrient content (N + P2O5), moisture and granulometry. Every parameter is fixed in the contract and verified by independent surveyors at loading and at discharge — specifications are contractual, not aspirational.

How a cargo moves

  1. Enquiry. Specification, volume, destination and target terms — through the enquiry form or sales@gidex.com.
  2. Counterparty onboarding. Mutual know-your-counterparty and sanctions screening — once, at the start of the relationship.
  3. Quotation. A costed offer: price basis, incoterms, laycan, inspection scope and payment structure.
  4. Contract. Spot, term or offtake; documents and payment structure fixed before cargo moves.
  5. Delivery & settlement. Independent inspection at both ends, clean documents, agreed settlement through the group's UAE banking.
