STERIGAS (EDN)See the benefits of fumigation pre & post harvest
Although many fumigation applications are used to treat freshly harvested or stored products, fumigation is also beneficial before harvesting. STERIGAS
™ has a low environmental impact and can be used to pre-treat soil against insects, weeds and parasitic nematodes (roundworms).STERIGAS is based on ethanedinitrile (EDN) and reaches the same efficacy levels as methyl bromide, even with shorter treatment times, facilitating significantly faster replantation. STERIGAS is also suitable for timber treatment, e.g. against wood boring beetles due to its high penetration characteristics when compared to methyl bromide.
