A natural enhancer for plant vitality
CleanShield Tonic Water is an agricultural biostimulant and foliar tonic—not a beverage—developed to support photosynthesis, root growth and crop quality.
Support the plant’s own biological processes
The CleanShield catalogue describes Tonic Water as a green plant enhancer designed to work through the leaves and root system.
The formulation is based on colloidal chemistry and microscopic structures described as micelles, made from fatty esters and fatty acids. The intended role is to support photosynthesis and internal sugar production—commonly measured as Brix—while encouraging root development and plant resilience.
Within a complete agronomic programme, the product is positioned to help growers pursue crop quality, efficient input use and improved performance under challenging conditions.
- Foliar and plant-support concept
- Focus on photosynthesis, Brix and root development
- Crop and soil programmes designed with local advisers
- Professional concentrate for dilution according to instructions
Evidence across crops, climates and study types
Butternut · South Africa
A 2020–21 farm trial used four treated plots and one control. Intertek Brix measurements reported treated-group averages of 16% and 22% above the control for the two dilution groups.
Tomato · Mexico
A six-week CIQA-CONACYT greenhouse bioassay evaluated foliar application and photosynthetic rate in plants with and without standard nutrition.
Tea · India
A one-year study with five treatments and five replications reported a significant 12.6% crop improvement at 0.5 L/ha compared with the untreated control.
Olive · Italy
A field study in a Xylella-infected area compared seven treated and seven untreated mature trees across 11 applications, measuring SPAD, stomatal conductance, growth and laboratory indicators.
Rice · Indonesia
Project records from Ciherang rice reported treated and traditional plots, including differences in harvested tonnes per hectare and visual disease observations.
Papaya · Nigeria
A grower trial compared 50 treated and 50 control trees over four months, recording observations on leaf vigour, water retention and fruiting.
Wheat · Zambia & Australia
Historical Brix trials reported treated wheat readings above nearby controls four days after foliar application.
Vegetables & Sweden
Photo records and field observations cover early vegetable growth and a Swedish Miscanthus trial, useful as exploratory evidence rather than controlled proof.
Crop-protection material
Separate technical material discusses insect and fungal applications. Any such claim requires pesticide authorisation and current product-specific evidence in the destination market.
Measure what matters to your crop
Before commercial scale-up, establish a local control protocol. Record variety, soil, weather, irrigation, fertiliser, crop protection, application rate and timing. Relevant measurements may include germination, root mass, Brix, photosynthetic rate, plant tissue, visual health, marketable yield and shelf life.
Responsible interpretation
The supplied portfolio contains laboratory work, replicated field trials, grower observations, photographs and user guidance. Their evidential weight is different. Reported improvements belong to the individual crop, dose, location and season and are not a universal promise.
Designed for agricultural partners
We work with growers, distributors, field technicians and research partners to create trials that produce useful, transparent data.
