coating technology

The spray-on coating forms a water-repellent layer that prevents fungal infections while allowing normal plant growth, reducing reliance on chemical fungicides that harm the environment and human health.

Bio-based materials derived from non-food organic waste are increasingly essential in reducing coatings’ environmental impact. Some of these materials even produce by-products that could be used as fertilizers.

Derived from Crude Tall Oil from sustainable forestry, SYLVASOLV 1000 is designed to enhance fertilizer coatings and crop protection, offering an alternative to petroleum-based products.

Researchers explored the potential of bacteria in reducing the carbon footprint of agriculture.

CoteX Technologies and Nutrien signed an MoU, agreeing to explore the joint commercialization of a coating technology for nitrogen fertilizer.
