Top 10 things to know about Aramax Intrinsic brand fungicide

1) History of success

Aramax^™ Intrinsic^® brand fungicide became the sixth member of a proven portfolio of science-backed solutions when BASF released it to the golf market last summer. The team behind Aramax Intrinsic brand fungicide also brought superintendents Insignia^® SC, Honor^®, Pillar^® G, Lexicon^® and Navicon^® Intrinsic brand fungicides.

2) A two-in-one inspired by your peers

Listening to superintendents who experienced disease control and resistance management success via tank mixing Insignia SC Intrinsic brand fungicide and Trinity^® fungicide led to BASF exploring the potential of a fungicide combining the active ingredients of both fungicides. Aramax Intrinsic brand fungicide is a pre-mix combination featuring pyraclostrobin and triticonazole.

3) Tested everywhere

In addition to engaging its vast network of university research partners, BASF prepared for the launch of Aramax Intrinsic brand fungicide by conducting a successful widespread testing program that exceeded the company’s benchmarks and expectations. More than 75 participating superintendents throughout the U.S. received a sample of Aramax Intrinsic brand fungicide, which allowed them to treat challenging areas and compare it to their current standard.
