Details 

Polywet Hold is a 100% non-ionic, residual surfactant formulation for long term prevention of localised dry spot occurrence. Polywet Hold is unmatched in its residual performance capabilities in both sandy and finer textured soil profiles. Polywet Hold also has excellent warm and cool season turf safety characteristics and can be used in all forms of turf management. The molecule in Polywet Hold is an EO/PO block co-polymer, which is a non-ionic surfactant containing ethylene oxide and propylene oxide units. EO/PO block copolymers allow for efficient wetting because the hydrophobic end of the surfactant attaches itself to the water repellent sand or soil particle by physical adsorption, providing an anchor which allows the more water soluble (hydrophilic) end to extend into pore space and absorb water onto the soil’s surface.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Polywet Hold?

Polywet Hold is a premium long-lasting soil wetting agent designed to improve water penetration and reduce water-repellent (hydrophobic) soil conditions. It is commonly used on lawns, turf, and sandy soils to help maintain consistent moisture levels and improve irrigation efficiency.

What does Polywet Hold do for my lawn?

Polywet Hold is formulated to:

  • Improve water penetration into dry or water-repellent soils
  • Reduce dry patches and localised dry spot (LDS)
  • Improve moisture distribution through the root zone
  • Enhance irrigation efficiency and water usage
  • Support healthier, more even lawn growth

It is especially useful in sandy soils or lawns prone to drying out quickly.

When should I apply Polywet Hold?

Polywet Hold is best applied:

  • At the start of warm or dry seasons
  • When lawns show signs of dry patches or uneven watering
  • After soil has become hydrophobic
  • As part of regular lawn maintenance (typically every 6 weeks depending on conditions)

Applying before peak heat helps prevent water repellency issues.

How do I apply Polywet Hold?

For best results:

  • Apply evenly across the lawn using a sprayer or irrigation system
  • Water in thoroughly after application to activate the product
  • Ensure consistent coverage across dry or affected areas
  • Follow label rates for correct dilution and application volume

Regular application helps maintain long-term soil moisture performance.
