AMVAC Chemical Corp. 和 TyraTech, Inc. 宣布了他们的新合资企业 Envance。据两家公司称，Envance 将为全球消费者、商业和农业害虫防治市场开发和商业化一系列害虫防治解决方案。
Eric Wintemute, chairman and CEO of AMVAC’s parent company, American Vanguard Corporation, said: “This exciting joint venture opens up a new growth path for AMVAC Chemical in both consumer and commercial pest control. Additionally, we expect to develop innovative solutions leveraging TyraTech’s Extend technology platform to create novel, synergistic combinations of natural active ingredients with proven synthetic compounds for comprehensive agricultural insect control.”
Wintemute 提到的部分增长是在本周实现的。这些公司在南非获得了 Extend 的 20 年专利。
Extend 是 Envance 开发的一种作物保护产品，含有合成化合物，具有更高的功效和环境影响。 Extend 可用于多种作物。
Bruno Jactel, Tyratech’s chief executive, said: “These patents are important to demonstrate the synergy between our blends and synthetic compounds and that we are uniquely able to improve the efficacy while reducing the environmental footprint of synthetic pesticides. This will support both the strategy of Envance Technologies, our joint venture with AMVAC Chemical Corp.”
Jactel, who took over as CEO of Envance last month, has been charged with the acceleration of the commercialization of the company’s products.
