| Root Destroyer
|

ROOT FORCE™ Foaming Root Destroyer
A blend of high foaming surfactants, fillers
and active root-killing ingredients. Kills existing growth
contained within the pipe and helps resist the formation of
new roots. Highly productive foaming system, releases the
chemical herbicide, which clings to and is absorbed by infiltrating
root tips. Affected roots then decompose and are washed away
without injury to the main tree or shrub. Because Root Force
also clings to pipe surfaces, new root growth from outside
the pipe is inhibited. Can be used in lines leading to cesspools
and septic tanks when used as directed. Does not contain copper
or copper compounds and is thus usable even where copper products
are restricted. In water soluble bags; no measuring, no mixing,
no mess. EPA Registration No. 7687-3 EPA Est. No. 065387-AR-001.

Cloroben PT-4™
A unique non-acid, non-caustic formulation, PT-4 is formulated to safely liquefy and disperse grease, soap scum, food residue, sludge and other waste build-up in all types of plastic or metal plumbing. Pine scented PT-4 helps prevent blockages before they happen and quickly cleans and deodorizes all parts of drainage systems. Makes cabling a drain line easier, and cleans greasy solids from tools and many types of hard surfaces. PT-4 has a carry-through effect to sewers and septic systems. Greasy matter is kept in solution and prevented from redepositing and causing inside (crown) corrosion and the formulation of sewer gases downstream. Since waste is solubilized it is readily available to waste stream microorganisms, beginning the biodegradation process. USDA authorized, NSF registered and biodegradable, PT-4 does not contain any petroleum-based solvents, ozone depleting substances, greenhouse gases, or agents listed as marine pollutants. Regular use of Cloroben PT-4 improves the function and condition of grease traps, prevents waste accumulation and odor problems in lines, floor drains, traps or disposal units, and keeps sump lift stations operating properly. It also reduces or eliminates operation downtime and damage from grease trap overflow.

Cloroben PT-BI01™
A concentrated liquid blend of fast acting grease and waste digesting bacteria and safe, biodegradable grease and soil modifiers. Does not contain any acids, caustics, solvents or other harsh or harmful ingredients. PT-BI01 continues its grease-digesting action in sewer lines, improving the performance of cesspools, septic tanks, and drain fields. Waste digesting bacteria biodegrade greasy matter en route, preventing redeposition and problems such as interior (crown) corrosion and sewer gas formation. Safe for use in all types of drainage plumbing. Helps eliminate unpleasant odors and slow drainage by breaking down and digesting fats, oils, grease, and other waste stream organics. USDA authorized/NSF registered for use in food processing plants. Regular use of PT-BI01 improves the function and condition of grease traps, prevents waste accumulation and odor problems in lines, floor drains, traps or disposal units, and keeps sump lift stations operating properly. It also reduces or eliminates operation downtime and damage from grease trap overflow.

Septic Products
Cloroben Aid-Ox®
Oxygen-based foaming porosity restorer and cleaner formulated to open clogged gravel beds surrounding cesspools, seepage pits, drywells, and drain fields. Detoxifies, drains, and deodorizes stagnant drainage areas, enhancing conditions for aerobic bacterial growth. Contains no acids, caustics or organic solvents.
