This is where we take a closer look at what makes ROUNDUP® different to other competitor weed killers. A glimpse of the advanced technology that has been applied to create the world's best selling weedkiller.
The science
The most advanced weedkiller on earth
ROUNDUP® incorporates a highly effective systemic action, developed originally by ROUNDUP® for the agricultural industry. Here’s how it works:
- ROUNDUP® is sprayed on to the leaves of the weed
- It's absorbed through the leaves and enters the plant's sap stream
- ROUNDUP® is carried to the growing points of the weed’s roots and shoots
- ROUNDUP® kills the leaves, shoots and roots
- Soil is left ready for replanting
Because it kills right down to the root, ROUNDUP® will eradicate almost all weeds, including deep-rooted perennials such as Pampas Grass, Bamboo and Lantana.
Why is ROUNDUP® effective?
Thanks to advanced weedkilling technology, honed over many years, ROUNDUP® is one of the safest weedkillers available when it’s used correctly.
One of the reasons for this is because ROUNDUP® deactivates upon contact with soil and is degraded by micro organisms.
Additionally, with ROUNDUP®, once the treated leaves have dried:
Children and pets can return to the area
You can carry out new planting
Additionally, the broad range of Ready to Use products, such as Pump ‘N Go and GEL, allows you to target individual weeds precisely, even in areas where there are plenty of other flowers and plants.
