WHY BUY FROM RAINBOW & BROWN
We will solve your problems. We can help identify that tricky weed you've been struggling to kill. Then we will deliver quickly direct to you, even at your farm or rural address, saving you the hassle of having to go into town.
Plus, because we produce and sell direct, we can usually save you money.
Once we help you get on top of the weeds we can then help you grow more grass, pasture or crops with a range of natural fertiliser and growth promoting products including Seaweed and Gibberellic acid.
OUR COMPANY
Rainbow & Brown Ltd is a privately owned NZ company. Our factory and office are in Rotorua. We are now in our 27th year of operation and have been growing stronger every year. We have customers all over New Zealand, including farmers, horticulturalists, spray contractors, nurseries, commercial and private gardeners, and many other businesses. Our products are mainly herbicides and herbicide adjuvants and penetrants. We manufacture herbicides (weed killers) to control a wide range of common New Zealand weeds. Then we sell direct to you, with no retailers, agents or middlemen involved. This is why our prices are so attractive - it is effectively the "wholesale" price, direct from the manufacturer.
OUR PEOPLE
The directors of Rainbow & Brown have been involved in the NZ agricultural chemical business for over 20 years. They are actively involved in the day-to-day running and building of the business. If you phone us, your most likely contact will be Rachael, our Office Manager. If you call in at the factory, you'll also meet Clinton, our Factory Manager.
ORDERING
You can order anytime by phone, e-mail, or online at this website. If you phone on the freephone number, you may at times get an answering machine. That means we are already on the phone or doing something else. Or it may be after office hours (see below). Don't be alarmed; leave your name and number and soon we will call you back. If we already have all your details, just leave your order (with your name and contact phone number on the machine).
DELIVERY
We send your order within 24 hours. Delivery will usually take between 1 and 4 days. If it hasn't arrived after that time, call us immediately so we can track it down for you. Delivery of orders of 60 litres or less will probably be to your door, including rural delivery addresses. However, delivery of larger orders will be to the nearby freight depot or drop-off point we will arrange with you when you place your order.

REFERRALS
