6x Brunnings Kaolin Clay 1kg - Professional Natural Plant & Soil Protectant (Bundle Pack)

6x Brunnings Kaolin Clay 1kg - Professional Natural Plant & Soil Protectant (Bundle Pack)

Brunnings Kaolin Clay is a high-purity, professional-grade mineral product designed to provide a natural layer of protection for your plants and improve soil characteristics. This 1kg pack of fine-textured clay acts as an effective physical barrier when applied as a foliar spray, helping to reflect harmful UV rays and reduce heat stress during extreme summer conditions. By creating a thin, white film on the surface of leaves and fruit, it helps maintain lower plant temperatures, which can prevent sunscorch and minimize moisture loss through transpiration. Additionally, when incorporated into sandy or light soils, Kaolin Clay aids in improving water retention and nutrient-holding capacity, making it a versatile tool for both plant health and soil conditioning. This natural, non-toxic mineral is an ideal choice for gardeners seeking an environmentally friendly way to safeguard their ornamental and edible crops from environmental extremes.

Best For: Protecting plants from heat stress and sunscorch while improving moisture retention in light or sandy soils.

Key Features

• Natural UV & Heat Shield: Forms a reflective physical barrier on foliage that reduces leaf temperature and protects sensitive fruit and leaves from sunburn.
• Transpiration Reduction: Helps plants retain internal moisture during hot, dry spells by minimizing water loss through the leaf surface.
• Soil Amendment Properties: When mixed into the root zone, it helps bind sandy soils together, enhancing their ability to hold onto water and essential nutrients.
• Non-Toxic & Environmentally Friendly: A naturally occurring mineral that is safe for use in organic garden management and around beneficial insects.

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)

Important Notes:

• Shipping costs vary by location and method
• Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
• Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
• Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
• Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions

Business Delivery:

• Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
• If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse is a logistics hub, not a retail showroom. Listing a product online does not mean it is stored at our Thomastown warehouse — many lines ship from supplier hubs (split fulfilment may apply).

How lead times work:

• Product page ETA: The Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) / lead-time badge shown on the product page at checkout is the agreed delivery timeframe for that order under Australian Consumer Law.
• Metro baselines: Advertised ETAs apply to standard metropolitan zones. Regional and remote addresses may take longer and may attract surcharges.
• Peak seasons: Orders in March–May, August–October, EOFY (June), Black Friday/Cyber Monday (November), and Christmas/New Year (December–January) may automatically add a 2–4 week buffer beyond the product page ETA.
• Supplier-dependent / backordered items: If stock is delayed, we will notify you with a revised ETA. You then have 7 days to accept the new timeframe or cancel for a full refund.
• Adloheat: Custom-made products from Adloheat (Pakenham, VIC) may take 4–12 weeks depending on the order.

Full fulfilment, cancellation, and freight rules are in our Terms & Conditions.
