About Cryotech
With more than 30 years of experience, Cryotech is a leading manufacturer of premium acetate-based pavement deicers and glycol-based aircraft deicing and lavatory fluids. Driven by customer needs, Cryotech has expanded into agriculture, delivering potassium acetate-based solutions that promote soil health, nutrient efficiency, and sustainable agronomic practices.
Services Offered
Cryotech offers acetate-based liquid nutrient solutions, including 0-0-24, 0-0-29, and custom fertilizer blends.

Production is supported by Cryotech's southeast Iowa facility, featuring significant storage capacity, room for expansion, and direct truck and rail access.

Cryotech values being part of the Agribusiness Association of Iowa for the opportunity to connect with industry leaders who understand Iowa agriculture. The Association fosters collaboration, insight-sharing, and partnerships that strengthen Cryotech's ability to support producers and agribusinesses across the state.
