Imagine a natural pest repellent that works as strongly as a harsh chemical spray but is safe for the planet. It's like switching from a toxic industrial cleaner to a plant-based one that actually scrubs away the grime just as well. This technology stops bugs from eating crops without leaving poisonous residues in the soil or water.
Farmers lose 10–20% of crops to pests, while synthetic pesticides are being banned due to toxicity. Existing biocontrols are often too weak or unreliable to replace chemicals at a commercial scale.
A series of high-potency biocontrol formulations and the associated regulatory dossiers for EU and US market authorization.
If you are a vineyard operator dealing with pest resistance and strict chemical bans — this project developed biocontrol formulations that provide the efficacy of chemicals with a safety profile for grapes. It aims for a 2024 launch in California for grape vines.
If you are a sugar beet producer dealing with the loss of 10–20% of crops to insects — this project developed a nature-derived solution. It targets temporary market authorization in the EU by 2025 to protect these specific crops.
If you are a distributor dealing with the progressive banning of synthetic pesticides — this project developed a new generation of biocontrol products. It has already signed a distribution agreement with De Sangosse for the European market.
The project involves €10M in CapEx for production capabilities in France and €2M in CapEx for an R&D lab. Total funding includes €2.5M in grants and €6M in direct investment.
The project plans to build dedicated production capabilities in France to supply growing demand and establish a commercialization organization in the EU and US.
Based on available project data, the company is focusing on registering the active substance and obtaining market authorizations to protect its commercial position.
The timeline includes a 2024 launch in California, temporary EU authorization for sugar beets and grape vines in 2025, and full EU market authorization by 2028.
The first products are targeted for launch in California in 2024, followed by Mexico in 2025 and Europe by 2028.
The project is led by a single French SME, Pertinent Eco-Solutions, representing a 100% industry ratio. This lean structure suggests a fast-track commercialization approach, supported by an external network of universities, testing labs, and a signed distribution partner, De Sangosse.
