Sipcam to Evaluate Two Products From Eden Research

Eden Research plc, a natural micro-encapsulation company, signed an Evaluation Agreement with Sipcam Italia Spa and Sipcam Iberia (Sipcam, a Sumitomo-related company) to evaluate two new products targeting crop diseases. This agreement follows a November 2014, deal in which Sipcam licensed Eden’s 3AEY, for the treatment of botrytis. 3AEY will launch once the EU product registration process is complete.

“We are pleased with the increase in activities with our partner, Sipcam,” said Sean Smith, Chief Executive Officer of Eden. “This is clear evidence that we are realizing the potential to expand the commercialization of our products and grow the existing relationship with Sumitomo related companies around the world.”

The new agreement will allow Sipcam to conduct field trials on two new Eden products for the treatment of powdery mildew, which affects flowers and fruit, and apple scab during the course of 2015. These products are also based upon combinations of Eden’s EU approved terpenes and its patented micro-encapsulation technology, GO-E. It is anticipated that Sipcam will expand its evaluations in 2016 and potentially begin the product registration process under a new licence from Eden should the trials prove to be conclusive during the course of 2015.
