Klinik Xtreme 540 SL – Highly concentrated glyphosate herbicide

Klinik Xtreme 540 SL is a herbicide containing the active ingredient glyphosate. The product acts systemically and is applied to the leaves.

🌱 HOW KLINIK XTREME 540 SL WORKS

Klinik Xtreme 540 SL is a non-selective herbicide with systemic action, available as a concentrate for preparing an aqueous spray solution.

The product is applied to the leaves and absorbed through the green parts of the plant, especially leaves, green shoots, and unwoody bark. The active ingredient is then transported throughout the plant, reaching underground parts such as roots and runners.

The first visible symptoms of herbicidal activity are yellowing and wilting of the plants, which appear approximately 7–10 days after treatment. The plants die completely after about three weeks.

High temperatures, high humidity, and intense sunlight accelerate the product's effects. The active ingredient is broken down by soil microorganisms and has no persistent herbicidal activity in the soil.

🧪 ACTIVE INGREDIENT CONTENT

Glyphosate (a compound from the aminophosphonate group) in the form of the isopropylamine salt (400.8 g/l) and the potassium salt (297.7 g/l) – 540 g/l (41.49%).

🚜 AREAS OF USE, APPLICATION TIMING AND DOSAGES

The product is intended for use with self-propelled or tractor-mounted field sprayers, hand-held sprayers including backpack sprayers, and wiping applicators.

⚠️ Important notice

The plant protection product must not be used in public parks and gardens, on sports and recreational areas, or on the grounds of schools, kindergartens, nurseries, and healthcare facilities.
