Flextend^®

Flextend improves the retention and deposition of spray droplets onto the leaf surface. A TRUE stickerthat forms a polymer film helping hold the chemical spray droplet on the leaf under rain or irrigation events, optimizing the performance of your pesticide program. Flextend is a superior extending agent designed to enhance the useful life of the pesticides, fungicides and fertilizers that you mix in your spray tank.

Flextend is an emusifiable film forming polymer based on natural pinene that has similar properties to the leaf cuticle. This means Flextend is soft on the cuticle and does not result in leaf burn as is often seen as a side effect of petrochemical based wetters.

Flextend provides penetration assistance combined with improved droplet lifetime makes it ideal for both contact and systemic pesticides. Flextend vaporization minimization makes it an important adjuvant for spraying in the agriculture/urban interface to help minimize drift off the target area.

Due to the natural polymerization of Flextend, this provides protection not only under rainfall and irrigation events but also environmental concerns like wind, UV light and volatilization. This film has the ability to also protect workers that have to re-enter the sprayed area that maybe sensitive to the chemical or the chemical vapour

Ideal for spray windows of 14-21 days, i.e. tree and vine crops.
