Horticultural disinfectants kill persistent bacteria, fungi, and pathogens. By using disinfectants, microorganisms can no longer spread further. Ensuring optimal greenhouse hygiene is crucial for optimal crop growth. At Royal Brinkman, we offer a wide range of high-quality horticultural disinfectants designed to meet your needs.

Disinfection involves killing, inactivating, or removing pathogenic organisms. It is crucial to prevent the spread of these organisms. Therefore, hygiene is a key focus in horticulture. Hygienic measures can help keep diseases and pests at bay, preventing crop contamination. However, it is often mistakenly believed that cleaning agents alone are sufficient. While cleaning agents make materials or surfaces clean, they do not directly kill microorganisms. It is important to understand the difference between disinfectants and cleaning agents. To learn more about this, our specialists wrote an article about the difference between cleaning and disinfection.

Important steps for effective greenhouse disinfection:

• Preparation: Remove all plant debris and clean surfaces thoroughly before applying disinfectants. Check out our assortment of cleaning agents.
• Application: Apply the chosen disinfectant according to the safety sheets and labels, ensuring complete coverage of all surfaces.
• Drying: Allow sufficient time for the disinfectant to dry and take effect.
  
  

Disinfectants are indispensable in horticulture. When purchasing disinfectants, it’s important to consider how they can be applied. These products come in various forms, such as foam disinfectants. Also, check whether the disinfectant can be used during the cultivation process or only during crop rotation.
