Roundup ProMax 30 Gl Drum (4/Pl) ( Glyphosate )

Why Choose Roundup ProMax?

Roundup ProMax® is engineered for fast, efficient weed control with a highly concentrated formula. It contains a potassium salt formulation of glyphosate, penetrating weed leaf surfaces more quickly, resulting in more rapid absorption and control. 

This makes it an excellent choice for those looking to manage tough and persistent weeds with a reduced risk of regrowth. It is also rain-fast in half the time compared to Roundup PRO®, providing more flexibility for application, even in variable weather conditions.

Key Benefits:

• Highly concentrated formula: One gallon of Roundup ProMax contains the glyphosate equivalent of 6 quarts of Roundup PRO®, making it a more efficient solution for weed control.
• Faster absorption: The advanced surfactant system ensures quicker penetration into weed leaves, allowing for faster control.
• Rain-fast in 30 minutes: Reduced waiting time after application before rain or irrigation, minimizing the risk of wash-off.
• Broad-spectrum control: Effective against annual and perennial weeds, grasses, and woody plants.
• Minimal regrowth: Designed to prevent regrowth by killing weeds down to the root.

Potassium Salt Formulation for Enhanced Efficacy

Roundup ProMax's potassium salt formulation makes it more effective than traditional formulations by increasing the product's concentration and enhancing its ability to penetrate plant tissues. This ensures that the herbicide is absorbed more quickly and makes the product more rain-resistant and long-lasting.

Key Features of the Potassium Salt Formula:

• Higher glyphosate concentration: Delivers more active ingredients per gallon, reducing the total volume needed for application.
• Improved absorption: The surfactant system in ProMax ensures that glyphosate penetrates weed leaves faster, leading to quicker results.
• Longer-lasting effects: Minimizes the likelihood of weed regrowth by ensuring thorough absorption and systemic action.

Effective Against a Wide Range of Weeds

Roundup ProMax® is designed to control a wide range of annual and perennial weeds, grasses, and woody plants. Its systemic action ensures that it kills the above-ground plant and targets the root system, preventing regrowth and ensuring long-lasting results.

Targets:

• Annual weeds: Quickly controls common annuals like crabgrass, pigweed, and lamb quarters.
• Perennial weeds: Effective against tougher, established weeds like bindweed, dandelions, and Canada thistle.
• Grasses: Targets unwanted grasses such as Bermuda grass and foxtail.
• Woody plants can control challenging woody species like poison ivy, blackberries, and small trees or saplings.

Application Guidelines

Roundup ProMax® is suitable for various sprayer types, including handheld, backpack, and large-scale sprayers. The concentrated nature of the product allows for more area coverage with less volume, making it cost-effective for large-scale weed control.

Application Tips:

• Mixing Ratio: Always follow the label instructions for the appropriate dilution rate based on the target weed species and the size of the treatment area. The concentrated formula of Roundup ProMax means you will use less product than standard glyphosate solutions.
• Sprayer Compatibility: Use standard spray equipment such as handheld, backpack, or boom sprayers for efficient coverage.
• Coverage: One 30-gallon drum can treat a vast area, making it suitable for use in large fields, commercial landscapes, and other large-scale weed control applications.

Rain-Fast in 30 Minutes

One of the standout features of Roundup ProMax® is its fast rain-fastness. Once applied, the herbicide becomes rain-fast in as little as 30 minutes, compared to the typical 1-2 hours required for standard formulations. This makes it ideal for application in areas with unpredictable weather or when time is of the essence.

Advantages of Quick Rain-Fastness:

• Minimal risk of wash-off: Reduces the likelihood of product wash-off if it rains shortly after application.
• Faster re-entry: Allows for quicker resumption of outdoor activities after application in both commercial and residential settings.

Safe and Effective Usage

While Roundup ProMax® is powerful, safety precautions are essential to ensure effective and responsible use. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when applying, and follow the guidelines on the label regarding application rates, environmental conditions, and safety measures.

Safety Tips:

• Wear PPE: Use gloves, protective eyewear, and long sleeves when handling and applying the product.
• Environmental precautions: Avoid spraying on windy days to prevent drift onto desirable plants.
• Storage: Store the product in a cool, dry place away from children, pets, and livestock.

Package Information
