Lanxess Corp. / Materials Protection Products Release date: September 28, 2007
LANXESS Corporation's Material Protection Products (MPP) business unit received Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) registration for a formulation based on the active ingredient Imidacloprid. LANXESS will market this 2.5 percent emulsifiable concentrate under the brand names PREVENTOL® TM-CE 25 for manufacturing use and PREVENTOL® TM-CE 25 Preservative for end-use applications.
The MPP group currently offers an extensive portfolio of preservatives, fungicides and insecticides. The new Imidacloprid formulations are effective against termites and other wood destroying insects; they are suitable for the formulation of wood preservatives and protection of construction materials. These PREVENTOL® products can be used in wood, wood composites, plastics and textile applications.
"Certain customers find using formulated solutions easier than using product in powder form," said Dr. Navnit Upadhyay, regional manager of MPP's Wood Protection and Antifouling business line. "By offering these new formulations in addition to our existing active ingredients, we are enhancing our ability to meet customers' specific needs."
"This is another example of our commitment to being a solutions provider", said Udo Reigber, Head of MPP Americas. "In addition to a broad offering of products, we have Technology Centers in the USA and other regions, regulatory and product safety specialists, and a production, distribution, sales and customer service network that offers a platform for customer growth."
