Zefenthrin 10 eC
UNBREAKABLE BARRIER
Market ZEFENTHRIN 10EC as the "Unbreakable Barrier." It is the most reliable choice for PCOs handling large-scale pre-construction projects in Malaysia's tropical climate, ensuring that the foundation remains termite-free despite heavy rainfall.

ZEFENTHRIN 10EC:
UNBREAKABLE BARRIER
Emulsifiable Concentrate (EC)
Active Ingredient:
bifenthrin 10 %
Type of application
When applied, Zefenthrin 10EC distributes evenly and adsorbs strongly to soil creating a continuous protection barrier to the properties：
1. Pre-construction Site
2. Post-construction Site
DESCRIPTION
The active ingredient of Zefenthrin 10EC – bifenthrin is from Pyrethroid group, which acts by contact and stomach poison. Zefenthrin 10EC is a repellent termiticide. Avoid treating near area with aquatic animals.
DIRECTION FOR USE
Zefenthrin 10EC is a Class II pesticide. It should be used as directed on the label. Use a volume of 5 litres solution per square meter area for soil treatment. Inject 2.5 litres solution per hole for corrective treatment.
Product Overview: ZEFENTHRIN 10 EC
Based on the product label, the 2025 Safety Data Sheet (SDS), and the academic research report provided, here is the comprehensive analysis of ZEFENTHRIN 10EC in English:
1. Core Technical Profile
Active Ingredient: 10.0% w/w Bifenthrin, a member of the pyrethroid chemical class.
Formulation: Emulsifiable Concentrate (EC), appearing as a yellowish-brown transparent liquid.
Hazard Classification: Classified as Kelas II (Poisonous) and is flammable with a flash point .
Regulatory Standard: Registered under LRMP R/9207 and updated with a April 2025 SDS.
2. Key Performance Advantages (The "Foundation Specialist")
According to the comparative research data, ZEFENTHRIN 10EC outperforms other active ingredients in terms of stability and persistence in wet conditions:
Exceptional Soil Adsorption (Koc): Bifenthrin has an extremely high organic carbon adsorption coefficient ( 1.31× 10e5 to 3.02× 10e5 ), the highest among tested termiticides.
High "Binding Power": It bonds tightly to soil particles in the top 0–5 cm layer, showing concentrations as high as even after simulation.
Resistance to Leaching: Due to its hydrophobicity and low water solubility (0.1mg/L), it is highly resistant to being washed away by rain.
Powerful Repellent Barrier: It acts as a repellent, creating a "no-go zone" that prevents termites from even approaching the treated structure.
3. Strategic Application & Market Logic
While ZETDOR (Imidacloprid) is the master of deep penetration for existing homes, ZEFENTHRIN 10EC is your primary weapon for new construction:
Best for Pre-Construction Soil Treatment: Its ability to stay exactly where it is sprayed makes it the gold standard for treating soil before the concrete slab is poured.
The "Rainy Season" Choice: Academic findings explicitly recommend Bifenthrin for soil treatment during rainy seasons because it minimizes environmental contamination and maintains barrier integrity.
Long-Term Protection: It degrades at a slow rate in soil, ensuring that the initial chemical barrier remains lethal and repellent for years.
