We are proud to introduce a new addition to the SIPSPRAY range of highly refined narrow range paraffinic oils for crop protection.

SIPSPRAY 20 has been specifically developed for use during the dormant season before the flowers begin to open, as it remains on the plant longer ensuring low phytotoxicity while maximizing pesticidal strength. SIPSPRAY 20 is a key component of Integrated Pest Management strategies as it avoids the development of pest resistance due to its alternative physical mode of action, asphyxiation. It is compatible with the auxiliary fauna, leaves no residues and is safe to end-user and the environment.
