Micron offer a range of spray solutions from hand held applicators to shrouded vehicle mounted sprayers and aerial atomisers for the turf, amenity and forestry sectors.

The AutoDos is a high quality metered dose spray applicator developed for the professional forester, horticulturalist or amenity user.

The sprayer is electrically operated from a small rechargeable 12v DC battery with an electronically controlled pump delivering a precise and repeatable metered volume of spray liquid. This allows the professional user to apply herbicides, insecticides, growth regulators or plant nutrients accurately and effortlessly to treat several trees in a single day.

The ‘Handydome’ has been developed for use in a wide range of weed control situations. A rotary atomiser, designed for Controlled Droplet Application (CDA) application of herbicides, is mounted under a flexible circular shroud which rotates freely resulting in efficient weed control and significant labour savings.

The Herbi-4 is a hand held spinning disc sprayer for the Controlled Droplet Application (CDA) of herbicides. It can use CDA formulations or traditional water-based products at total spray volumes of only 10-30 litres/hectare. The consistently large spray droplets of around 250 micron minimise any risk of spray drift and fall in a precise 1.2m wide circular spray pattern.
