Product Overview

Botanical knockdown that keeps spray programs compliant

K-Guard pairs karanjin-rich extracts with advanced emulsification to deliver consistent insect growth regulation in export-grade production systems. Each batch is cold-filtered to stabilize furanoflavonoids and maximize contact efficacy on resistant sucking pests. Manufacturing controls keep solvent residues below international thresholds, enabling low PHI schedules without compromising performance. The EC concentrate and WP dispersible powder give distributors flexibility across humid, arid, and protected environments. Detailed dossiers, SDS, and field protocols ship with every order to simplify market onboarding.
