Innovative solutions for pest management

Our applied chemistry team develops new and improved products for sustainable pest management, with a focus on novel lures and repellents.

We provide a service for the analysis of product efficacy and longevity, and investigates chemical-mediated aspects of behaviour and physiology, particularly pheromones, phytochemicals and toxicants.

We have comprehensive state-of-the-art instrumentation for collection and analysis of samples, as well as for custom-design and synthesis of molecules, and product formulation.
