Why Choose Bio-Ballast® for Your Farm Equipment?

Posted by Chris Adams on 4.25.2025

​With winter behind us and the agricultural season ramping up, it's the perfect time to optimize your farm equipment for peak performance. One effective way to enhance your machinery's efficiency and safety is by using Bio-Ballast®, a sustainable tire ballast solution from EnviroTech.

Bio-Ballast® is a USDA BioPreferred, biodegradable, and non-corrosive liquid tire ballast designed to increase traction and stability for off-road machinery. Bio-Ballast® is safe for humans, animals, and plants, making it an environmentally friendly choice for your farm.

Originally developed for tire companies in the Pacific Northwest, Bio-Ballast® has proven effective in providing counterbalance and weight equalization in vehicles, enhancing stability and pulling power.

Benefits of Using Bio-Ballast®

  • Enhanced Traction and Stability: Improves tire traction and pulling power, essential for heavy-duty tasks during planting and harvesting seasons.​
  • Non-Corrosive Formula: Prevents rust and rim failure, extending the lifespan of your equipment.
  • Eco-Friendly: Completely biodegradable and safe to use around crops and livestock. ​
  • Cold Weather Performance: Remains slush-free down to -30°F, ensuring reliable performance in cooler temperatures. ​

Introducing BallastSeal®: The Perfect Companion

For added protection, consider using BallastSeal® alongside Bio-Ballast®. This sealant can repair punctures up to 1/4 inch, maintaining tire pressure and preventing ballast loss. When mixed in a 30:1 ratio with Bio-Ballast®, BallastSeal® enhances tire performance and extends their lifecycle. ​
