Crop oil Concentrates (COC)

Crop oil concentrates (COC) such as Peptoil and Sidekick are derived from paraffinic mineral oils.

Peptoil

Peptoil is a superior paraffinic oil with a special blend of surfactants that enhances performance of certain crop protection products by aiding droplet spreading and penetration through cuticular disruption. Featuring a higher oil content than other paraffinic oils like Uptake and Bonza, Peptoil also contains antifoam for low foaming and comes with excellent emulsifying properties.

Methylated seed oils

Methylated Seed Oils (MSO) such as Punch and Unison are derived from soybean oil.

Unison

Unison is the adjuvant for superior drift control and enhanced efficacy of non-selective herbicide spray applications for arable, cropping, pasture and horticulture. Thanks to a unique blend containing pine tree extract from renewable and sustainable forestry, Unison is also softer on crops.

Punch

Punch is a modified vegetable oil and surfactant blend suitable for use with certain herbicides and desiccants. It not only provides good spreading and excellent deposition and penetration through waxy plant cuticles, but reduces spray droplet evaporation rates and drift.
