Belchim announce new biocide: The amenity sector is set to benefit following the recent approval of a new product for the professional biocide market.

Enclean, containing 500g/l of the active ingredient Nonanoic acid, has just received registration and will strengthen and expand Belchim Crop Protection’s product range into the amenity sector says Belchim Amenity Specialist William Weld.

“Enclean has been greatly anticipated. It’s a natural plant origin biocide specifically designed to remove algae from a wide range of hard surfaces including: pavements, greenhouses (outside), patios, roofs, wooden decking and fence panels. Enclean’s active ingredient Nonanoic acid is extremely effective, non-corrosive and quickly degrades into natural elements. It offers good operator safety and has no environmental hazard classification.

It also has a very low dilution requirement making it one of the easiest biocides to use;  “1 litre of formulated product will cover the same area as 5 litres of most other surface cleaners” he adds.

Enclean comes in 1L packs, with a dilution rate of one pack per 14L of water offering users 550m2 of coverage from a single 15L knapsack sprayer using an Evenspray red 0.4 nozzle (4 times the coverage of most other biocides under the same operating conditions) claims Mr Weld.

“Enclean will help to simplify the application of surface cleaners whilst delivering excellent results on algae. It should be available for use via Belchim’s amenity distribution partners from the beginning of March” he concludes.

Michael Hampton, parts manager at Reesink Turfcare, the exclusive distributor in the UK and Ireland of Toro Parts, says: “Anytime Toro customers see the plus symbol next to Toro Reels, they know they’re getting a fully-integrated cylinder assembly. Demand in the marketplace and customer feedback has been a key driver behind this product, which allow technicians to streamline their operations.”

The additional bearings, seals and spacers are sold at a discount from the individual part retail price, making a very real and positive contribution to your business’ bottom line, too.

Michael continues: “This makes a very real saving at the point of purchase, but the savings don’t stop there. Less time and labour means your mowers are back in action faster, saving money and resources.”

Plus, having all the parts professionally assembled at the factory removes the guesswork for technicians and by ensuring the recommended bearings are utilised increases the product life of the cutting units, as Michael explains: “Toro Reels+ guarantee a fit which matches the exact engineering specifications of the mower. And as you might expect, a perfect fit produces a perfect cut. Spending less time on maintenance and increasing the product life of the cutting units means there’s more time to focus on providing the best turf care possible.”
