Stocking the right fungicide range is about more than just having stock on hand – it’s about delivering confidence to growers facing increasingly complex disease and timing pressures.
The Cheers family from Colin Campbell (Chemicals) is purpose-built with that goal in mind, offering three distinct chlorothalonil formulations designed to provide flexibility for growers, while maintaining consistent disease protection.
Built on proven chlorothalonil chemistry, the Cheers range has earned a reputation for reliability and formulation stability.
Importantly, this chemistry is backed by decades of local experience, with Colin Campbell (Chemicals) having supplied chlorothalonil products to the Australian market since 1971.
This long-standing presence gives resellers and growers confidence the Cheers range is supported by deep technical knowledge and a strong understanding of local conditions.
Each product is engineered to perform under Australian conditions, giving resellers a versatile toolkit to recommend across diverse cropping systems – from high-value horticulture to large-scale broadacre operations.
At the premium end of the range sits Cheers WeatherShield 720, an SC formulation developed for situations where performance under pressure is critical.
Designed to “stick better, mix better, and store better,” WeatherShield 720 is particularly suited to high-value crops and environments prone to rainfall.
Its superior adhesion helps maintain coverage even after challenging weather events, reducing the risk of wash-off and ensuring longer-lasting protection.
For resellers servicing growers in high rainfall zones or those producing premium crops, this product offers a level of confidence generic brands can’t match.
Complementing this is Cheers 900WG, a high-loading water-dispersible granule formulation trusted by broadacre growers.
Ease of handling and efficient mixing make it a practical choice for large-scale spraying operations where time and simplicity are critical.
The higher concentration means less product needs to be handled, improving operational efficiency in the paddock.
Cheers 900WG provides a dependable, easy-to-recommend solution for customers looking to maximise productivity without compromising on disease control.
Rounding out the range is Cheers 720 HoldFast, a suspension concentrate formulation with a built-in sticker.
This integrated feature enhances on-crop retention, helping the active ingredient remain in place for longer periods.
It is an ideal option for growers seeking a balance between performance and value.
The Cheers range is also packaged with practicality in mind.
Cheers WeatherShield 720 and Cheers 720 HoldFast are available in 10L, 20L and 1000L containers, providing flexibility for different farm sizes and operations.
Meanwhile, Cheers 900WG is supplied in convenient, easy-to-handle 15kg bags, making transport, storage and handling straightforward for both retailers and growers.
Together, the three formulations allow resellers to tailor their advice based on specific grower needs.
Whether the priority is superior retention in wet conditions, operational efficiency in broadacre systems, or a cost-effective all-round solution, the Cheers range provides a clear, simple and logical choice.
Beyond product performance, Colin Campbell (Chemicals) backs the Cheers family with a dedicated, experienced field force.
Their team works closely with resellers and growers, offering technical support, product training and practical insights that help retailers confidently position the range to their customers.
This on-the-ground expertise ensures that retailers are not just selling a product, but providing a solution supported by knowledge and service.
Ramsay Zreikat, national sales manager for Colin Campbell (Chemicals), emphasises the importance of this partnership approach. “Store staff are at the frontline of supporting growers, and our role is to make that job easier,” he says.
“The Cheers range has been developed to give resellers clear options for different farming systems, backed by formulations they can trust.
“Combined with our field support, it’s about delivering confidence – both to the retailer and the grower.”
Disease pressure remains a challenge across a range of crops and regions, so stocking the Cheers range is an opportunity to strengthen grower relationships through reliable recommendations.
Growers are increasingly looking for solutions that deliver consistent results without adding complexity to their operations.
By offering three complementary formulations under a single, trusted chemistry, the Cheers family simplifies the decision-making process.
Resellers can guide growers towards the most suitable option based on their specific conditions and priorities, reinforcing their role as a trusted advisor.
In a market where performance, efficiency and reliability are paramount, the Cheers range stands out as a practical and proven solution.
If you are looking to deliver value to your customers while building confidence in your product offering, it’s clear there are plenty of reasons to give three ‘Cheers’ for better disease control.
