Moisturin is a dual-purpose clear liquid plant coating that forms a prophylactic shield on plants and significantly reduces plant stress due to water loss. This physical barrier also protects the plant against damage from a large variety of insects, disease, UV degradation, frost, windburn and acid rain. With a single application of Moisturin you create multiple benefits for your trees and plants. This is extremely cost effective for the grower and the reduction of toxic chemicals going into the soil or ground water is beneficial to the earth.
MOISTURIN AS AN ANTI-TRANSPIRANT
|
University and field tests have shown Moisturin to be the most effective of all anti-transpirants and anti-desiccants. Why is this? Moisturin antitranspirant uses a completely different chemistry than typical foliar anti-transpirants.
Moisturin's patented formula contains a tough adhesive resin that has an extremely low vapor transmission rate. This resin allows Moisturin antitranspirant to be used at any dilution with virtually no danger of plant phytotoxicity. Moisturin antitranspirant is fortified with two high-grade surfactants, a UV inhibitor and a waterproofing agent to prevent the dried film from leeching off the plant surface. Moisturin antitranspirant enhances plant appearance with a slight gloss coating and will not stick in sprayers like standard anti-transpirants.
Moisturin is extremely effective as a frost protector. As an anti-transpirant and anti-desiccant, Moisturin can be applied to dormant woody plants to reduce water loss during harvest, storage, shipping and re-planting. It improves the survival of trees and plants exposed to any type of stress, especially species that are sensitive to water-loss. Moisturin is effective for roses, cane-berries, fruit trees and ornamentals. It is especially effective for big-leaf evergreens during extreme cold conditions.

MOISTURIN AS A PROTECTIVE PLANT COATING
|
|
Spraying Moisturin on a plant is like wrapping the plant in a clear, strong membrane. Unlike chemicals that use active agents and toxicants to kill or repel, Moisturin offers a completely different type of safe passive mechanical plant protection. Moisturin actually forms a physical barrier on the plant surface to protect it against all types of damage. This is an entirely new concept in total plant protection and it comes with the additional benefits offered by the best of the foliar anti-transpirants. Moisturin's unique new approach to plant protection is not a cure-all but it does offer the option to protect plants in a gentler way. Moisturin will have no impact or negative effect on ground water or soil. It is completely safe and offers no hazard to the persons that handle it. TRY MOISTURIN AS AN ENVIRONMENTAL SUBSTITUTE FOR FUNGICIDES AND INSECTICIDES.
