From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated on 29 April 1999 and commenced trading in 2001. The Company specialises in commercialising patented technology for the control of insect pests and diseases in crop production and in the food processing sectors.
The focus of the Company has been the discovery and development of novel applications using electrostaticaily charged, micro-powder wax particles. The wax particles can be formulated with a variety of natural and / or synthetic pesticides which adhere to many surfaces, such as leaf foliage, plant seeds, etc.
Initially the Company developed, marketed and sold pheromone-based products to the crop sector, averaging annual sales of approximately £150k. From 2010, the Company narrowed its product range and focus to pheromone application for use on the stored commodity sector. The Company continued to support two products, which are sold through two UK based distributors. One product, “SPTab”, relates to various pest control applications and chemicals for indoor and outdoor use against rodents, birds and insects. The second product, “CLTab”, relates to various moth repellents used in the storage of clothes, shoes and garments.
