What Is A Wetting Agent?

Wetting agents are specialist surfactants that reduce the surface tension of water, allowing it to penetrate water-repellent (hydrophobic) soils. This ensures moisture reaches the root zone evenly, preventing dry areas and improving overall turf performance.

Long-Lasting Performance

Our Wetting Agent uses unique formulation technology to deliver a long-lasting residual effect. A single application can remain effective for up to five months, meaning just one treatment could provide season-long benefits.

Benefits of Wetting Agent Treatment

  • Prevents and cures localised dry patch
  • Improves moisture retention in the root zone
  • Reduces water run-off
  • Improves irrigation efficiency
  • Enhances nutrient uptake
  • Improves drainage
  • Helps alleviate compaction
  • Greatly improves sward quality

By improving water distribution, wetting agents can reduce irrigation requirements by up to 50%, helping lawns recover from drought and environmental stress.
