Commercial Herbicide Spray Enhancer
Weed Spray Enhance by dct
More Effective Weed Control. Lower Environmental Load.
Weed Spray Enhance is a commercial herbicide spray enhancer (adjuvant) designed for growers, farmers, councils, and professional spray contractors who need reliable weed control at scale, without increasing chemical use.
It improves herbicide uptake, reduces spray loss, and supports more environmentally responsible spraying across farms, orchards, vineyards, roadsides, and public land.
Made in New Zealand by DCT.
The Problem
Large-scale weed control fails for predictable reasons:
Spray drift
Poor leaf uptake
Runoff and waste
Rising chemical costs
Increasing environmental scrutiny
Adding more herbicide doesn’t fix this.
Better spray efficiency does.
The Solution
Weed Spray Enhance improves the process, not the product.
It enhances:
Spray adhesion
Leaf penetration
Coverage consistency
Chemical efficiency
Result: better weed control with less chemical loss.
What It Is
A commercial spray adjuvant added directly to herbicide tanks to improve performance and reduce environmental impact.
It works with:
Glyphosate-based sprays
Selective herbicides
Non-selective weed control programs
This is not a replacement.
It’s a multiplier.
Why Commercial Operators Use It
✔ Improved Herbicide Uptake
More active ingredient enters the target plant. Less is wasted.
✔ Reduced Drift & Off-Target Loss
Improved droplet behaviour reduces drift — critical for roadside, boundary, and public-space spraying.
✔ Lower Chemical Load
Improved efficiency can allow effective weed control at reduced application rates.
✔ Supports Soil & Microbial Recovery
Humic components help buffer soil biology following spraying.
✔ Environmentally Responsible Weed Control
Lower runoff. Lower residues. Better outcomes under increasing compliance pressure.
Designed for Compliance & Scale
Councils, roading authorities, and commercial growers are under growing pressure to:
Reduce chemical inputs
Protect waterways
Demonstrate responsible land management
Weed Spray Enhance supports these goals by improving spray efficiency rather than spray strength.
This helps align weed control programs with:
Environmental management plans
Sustainability targets
Public and regulatory expectations
Use Cases
Roading and infrastructure weed control
Council parks and reserves
Vineyards and orchards
Arable and pastoral farming
Fence lines, drains, and headlands
Contract spray operators
Anywhere consistent weed control and environmental accountability matter.

FAQs
Will this reduce our total herbicide use?
It improves efficiency, which can allow effective control at lower rates depending on program and conditions.
Is it suitable for roadside spraying?
Yes — particularly where drift reduction and off-target protection are critical.
Does it affect spray timing or equipment?
No changes required.
Is this compliant with standard spray programs?
Yes. It integrates into existing herbicide programs as a spray adjuvant.
Bottom Line
Spraying more isn’t progress.
Spraying smarter is.
Weed Spray Enhance helps large-scale weed control programs deliver results with lower waste, lower impact, and higher accountability.

The Science Behind Weed Spray Enhance
The natural compounds in Weed Spray Enhance increases the efficiency and can speed up delivery of chemical herbicides.
This is due to the small molecule size of the active ingredients in the product which binds with the herbicide and enables it to enter through the stomata of the leaf.
Increasing the transportation of the herbicide into the weed which can suppress re-growth up to twice as long as the herbicide alone.
Weed Spray Enhance is a highly efficient chelating agent due to its natural components having a high Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC), This means Weed Spray Enhance can effectively hold and exchange positively charged ions, which plays a crucial role in how they interact with herbicides.
This binding helps in stabilising the herbicides, making them more effective at targeting weeds while reducing their potential harm to the environment.
By chelating herbicides, these acids enhance the delivery of active ingredients to the weeds, ensuring more efficient weed control with less chemical usage.
By binding the herbicide to the small molecule and with the chelating process these actions increase permeability and efficiently transport the herbicide into the plant, this can result in an improvement in uptake from about 30%, effectively meaning that you can reduce the input of herbicide by the same amount while still achieving the same results.
Many soils are suffering from reduced microbial activity which means that even the most bio-degradable chemicals do not rapidly break down, Weed Spray Enhance acts as food source and energiser for soil biology that scarce populations of microbes are drawn to, so that when the Herbicide and Weed Spray Enhance Mix reaches the soil, the micro-biology responsible for its breakdown are drawn to it providing an increased bio-degradability where the herbicide is broken down into simpler compounds, converting the herbicide into harmless substances.
The detoxifying quality of Weed Spray Enhance not only works with the herbicide added to it, but it continues to bind to and aid in the breakdown of most organic and inorganic pollutants and toxic residues that have built up in the soil over time.
Protecting Our Pollinators
Bee-Friendly Solution: Bees play a vital role in pollination, which is essential for biodiversity and food production. Traditional herbicides can be harmful to these crucial pollinators. By using DCT Weed Spray Enhance, the impact on bee populations is minimised as it acts as a buffer, reducing the toxicity of herbicides helping to safeguard these vital insects.
Supporting Insect Populations
Preserving Beneficial Insects: Not all insects are pests. Many are crucial for maintaining the health of ecosystems by controlling pest populations and aiding in decomposition. DCT Weed Spray Enhance helps protect these beneficial insects by reducing the harmful effects of herbicides, ensuring a balanced ecosystem.
Enhancing Soil Health
Improving Soil Biome: The soil biome is a complex community of micro-organisms that maintain soil health and fertility. Traditional herbicides can disrupt these communities, leading to soil degradation. DCT Weed Spray Enhance promote the growth of beneficial micro-organisms, enhancing soil structure and nutrient availability.
