Peeling-, trunk- and root protection
Protect your plants from root drying, prevent drying damage and improve the soil’s water balance to optimise germination and nutrition. Our tree trunk paint is a great means to protect all deciduous woods and, in particular, fruit trees from strong temperature fluctuations, sun cracks and frost cracks.

CORTIFLEX LIQUID Trunk Protection Paint sprayable
The best biomechanical tree trunk paint (white paint) – Protect deciduous woods, fruit trees and garden groves from frost cracks, bark cracks and sun cracks – spreadable and sprayable
When young plants from tree nurseries are planted in new locations (in alleys or individually) they are suddenly exposed to intense sun and temperature changes. This makes the bark prone to frost cracks and sun cracks. CORTIFLEX® provides excellent protection for all deciduous woods and, in particular for fruit trees.

protects for up to 5 years – remains effective longer than conventional trunk protection paints (e.g. lime paints)
ecxellent, inexpensive protection for new plantings (even cheaper than reed or jute, in which tree pests may find shelter and nest)
mechanical effect mechanism,provides temperature regulation
not harmful to plants! - not toxic
application period: all year round, application recommended when temperatures are + 8° C
store and spread frost-free
top protection for fruit trees (e.g. apricot, apple, beech, maple, cherry and many other ), alley trees and garden trees
helps to prevent damage caused by late frost
better and more beautiful whitening effect through the addition of special white pigments, ensures optimum reflection of sunlight

Application of spreadable CORTIFLEX® EXTRA:
Mechanical pre-treatment of the tree bark with the supplied scouring pad. Afterwards apply the PreFlex undercoat liberally to species of tree with coarse bark and allow to dry (firm to the touch). No undercoat needs to be used for species of tree with smooth bark. Cover the trunk with an undiluted main coat of CORTIFLEX®. Only apply if the temperature is above 8 °C and if it is not raining or about to rain. Setting time is 0.5 to 2 hours – after that it is extremely long-lasting!
Application of sprayable CORTIFLEX® LIQUID:
Before beginning the spraying process, loose pieces of bark and contaminants should be removed from the trunk with a piece of scouring pad or a wire brush, depending on the texture. Before application shake CORTIFLEX® well and cover the entire trunk. Practical tip: this coat can also be evenly applied with a paintbrush.

Cotiflex: PreFlex undercoat
Undercoat for the Biomechanical Trunk Protection Paint Cortiflex®
If tree bark is very absorbent and porous, prepare tree bark with PreFlex® Undercoat before applying Cortiflex®. If no undercoat is used, bark would absorb binding agents from the Cortiflex® Trunk Protection Paint. Besides, the undercoat binds remainders of loose bark flakes and facilitates the application of Cortiflex® Trunk Protection Paint considerably. If no undercoat is used, the durability of Cortiflex® is much lower.
shipping unit:
- canisters of 5 l
- canisters of 1 l
PreFlex Undercoat quantities needed: up to approx. 20 % of Cortiflex® Trunk Protection Paint quantities
shake well before use
apply undercoat, e.g., with Angle Brush

Witalgin (Forstalgin) - against root drying
Protection from root drying for forest woods and nursery trees. Improvement of water supply.
shipping unit: bag of 1 kg or 25 kg
produced from sea algae
can absorb water to a multiple of its own weight (= water reservoir for plant)
environmentally neutral
Prevent transplant shock and increase drought resistance of plants:
Dip roots into Witalgin wash before planting.
concentration of wash: 0.5 to 1.5 %
forest plants: 0.8 % (only 800 grams of Forstalgin per 100 litres of water)
large plants: 1 to 1.5 %
planting hole suitable for pot plants and bare-root plants: put ca. 1/2 to 1 teaspoon into planting hole, then plant the plant
Witalgin acts as water reservoir for plants.
Improve water supply and soil (e.g. when preparing seedbeds): This optimises germination, water supply and nutrition.
Application: Depending on soil type and seedlings: 10 to 20 g/m². To ensure a uniformly even application, you can mix Witalgin with sand befo re use.
Planting vegetation on scarps, also by machine: Spraying method guarantees very good seedling growth. This ensures rapid greening up of the respective area.
Application: Add 2 to 6 g of Witalgin per 1.5 l of water. This ensures an increase in seedling growth by up to 60%.
Practical tip - Example for bare-root forest plants: 800 g of Witalgin are stirred into 100 l of water. The wash will treat between 500 and 2,000 bare-root plants. This small effort will promote the plants' taking root considerably!
Mixing:
Quantities up to 100 litres of the solution can be mixed by hand. We recommend using a mechanical stirring device for quantities exceeding 100 litres.
Mixing by hand:
Fill water quantity needed in container made of plastic. Swirl water, add Witalgin powder slowly and consistently to the swirled water while stirring well and continue to stir for several minutes. Let mixture rest for two hours. This allows clots that may have formed to dissolve. Then stir well again.
Mechanical mixing:
When using an electrically driven stirring device with an impeller, the Witalgin solution is ready-to-use immediately. Please use stirring devices according to the respective user instructions. Ensures that plant takes root – prevents drying damage Protection from root drying for forest woods and nursery trees, improvement of water supply
Note:
Do not use galvanised buckets or other such vessels to stir or store the solution. Use Witalgin solution within three days from preparation. The use of synthetic wetting and dispersion agents is not recommended.
Wöbra Stripping Stop
