ICL
has announced the launch of an exciting new addition to its leading range of
H2Pro wetting agents – H2Pro “SaltSmart”.
Utilising
advanced polymer and surfactant technology, the H2Pro range of specialist
wetting agents have been carefully formulated and tested to help turf managers
achieve maximum control of their moisture management.
The
existing H2Pro’s DewSmart, TriSmart, FlowSmart and AquaSmart have been designed
to achieve specific goals, each with a different blend of surfactants.
The
four products have been widely commended for offering a number of solutions
such as; preventative and curative action against Dry Patch, providing a drier
surface in wet conditions and significantly reducing irrigation requirements.
H2Pro
SaltSmart is the latest addition to the H2Pro range and is set to provide turf
managers with an even wider range of options for their moisture management
strategies.
A
unique blend of penetrant surfactant with Calcium macro-polymer, H2Pro
SaltSmart has been designed to move water and exchange cations thus reducing
the impact of salt on turf. This specialist product works by allowing water to
penetrate and dissolve and flush salts below the rooting level or out into the
drainage system.
The
build-up of salt levels in rootzones can be problematic in sports turf and
H2Pro SaltSmart will be a welcome addition for venues such as links courses
which may be situated close to the sea or for those who encounter high
evaporation and low rainfall.
The
product could also be extremely beneficial for low CEC sand-based rootzones
that have limited buffering against salt influx and for turf managers who have
poor quality groundwater for irrigation.
