Granular and prilled Urea 46% N (CAS 57-13-6) for agricultural, industrial and DEF/AdBlue applications. Supplied in bags, jumbo bags and bulk to the UAE and across the GCC.
Product Overview
Urea (CO(NH₂)₂), also known as carbamide, is the world's most widely used nitrogen fertilizer, prized for its exceptionally high nitrogen content of 46% — the highest of any solid nitrogen fertilizer commercially available. It is manufactured industrially by reacting ammonia with carbon dioxide under high pressure and temperature, then formed into either granular or prilled solid particles for storage, transport and field application.
Beyond its dominant role in agriculture, urea is a critical industrial feedstock — it reacts with formaldehyde to form urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins used throughout the wood panel and adhesive industries, and is the key raw material for melamine production. In the automotive and transport sector, high-purity technical urea is the active ingredient in Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF, marketed as AdBlue), used in SCR systems to reduce NOx emissions from diesel engines.
Chelora Chemicals UAE supplies both granular and prilled fertilizer-grade urea (46% N) as well as technical-grade urea for industrial and DEF production, serving agricultural distributors, resin manufacturers and automotive fluid producers across the UAE and wider GCC.

Urea's exceptional nitrogen density and chemical versatility make it central to agriculture, resin manufacturing and emission-control industries across the UAE and GCC.
The world's dominant solid nitrogen fertilizer, applied directly to soil or dissolved for fertigation and foliar feeding across broad-acre farming, landscaping and greenhouse agriculture.
Reacts with formaldehyde to produce UF resin, the principal adhesive binder used in particleboard, MDF and plywood manufacturing throughout the construction and furniture industries.
High-purity, low-biuret technical urea is the active ingredient in DEF, injected into diesel exhaust streams to reduce NOx emissions via SCR catalytic systems in trucks, buses and heavy equipment.
Used as a non-protein nitrogen source in ruminant animal feed formulations, supplementing dietary protein requirements for cattle and other livestock in a cost-effective manner.
Key feedstock for melamine manufacturing, used in melamine-formaldehyde resins for laminates, tableware and flame-retardant coatings.
Urea solutions are used as reducing agents in Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (SNCR) and SCR systems at power plants and industrial facilities to control nitrogen oxide emissions.

FAQ
Urea is used primarily as a high-nitrogen (46% N) fertilizer for agriculture; as a co-reactant with formaldehyde in urea-formaldehyde resin production for wood panels; as the active ingredient in Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF/AdBlue) for diesel vehicle emission control; as a non-protein nitrogen source in animal feed; and as feedstock for melamine production across the UAE and GCC.
The CAS number for Urea (carbamide, CO(NH₂)₂) is 57-13-6. Urea is not classified as a hazardous substance for transport in its solid form.
Granular urea is produced by a granulation process that creates larger, harder, more uniform particles (typically 2–4 mm) with greater crushing strength and lower dust generation — preferred for bulk blending and mechanical spreading. Prilled urea is formed by spraying molten urea into a cooling tower to create smaller, rounder prills (typically 1–2.8 mm) — historically the more common form and still widely used, especially for direct field application and industrial use.
Chelora Chemicals UAE is a dedicated Urea supplier serving all seven UAE emirates. We stock granular and prilled 46% N fertilizer-grade urea, as well as low-biuret technical urea, in bags, jumbo bags and bulk vessel quantities, serving agricultural, resin, DEF production and animal feed industries across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain.
Yes. Chelora Chemicals UAE delivers Urea to all seven UAE emirates — Dubai (including Jebel Ali FZ, Al Quoz and DIP), Abu Dhabi (Musaffah, ICAD, KIZAD), Sharjah (SAIF Zone, Hamriyah FZ), Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain — as well as to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman and other GCC countries.
Biuret is a condensation by-product formed during urea manufacturing that can be toxic to certain crops, particularly as a foliar spray, and must be kept very low in DEF/AdBlue applications to avoid damaging SCR catalyst systems. Standard agricultural urea typically allows up to 1.0% biuret, while foliar-application and DEF-grade urea require biuret levels below 0.3%. Always specify your application when ordering so we supply the correct biuret specification.
No. Urea in its solid granular or prilled form is a low-hazard material, non-flammable and non-explosive, and is not classified as dangerous goods for transport. Dust generated during handling may cause mild eye and respiratory irritation, so standard dust control measures and basic PPE are recommended during bulk handling. Always consult the batch-specific Safety Data Sheet (SDS) provided with every shipment.
Chelora Chemicals UAE supplies Urea in 50 kg PE-lined bags (standard for agricultural distributors), 1,000 kg jumbo bags (medium to large-volume buyers) and bulk vessel/break-bulk shipment for very large export orders. Anti-caking coated grades are available for extended shelf stability in humid climates.
