PheroSyn

PheroSyn develop and supply new types of insect pest pheromones for smarter and more sustainable pest management.

Our mission is to scale-up the production of high-value, not currently available insect pheromones and supply them into the agribusiness sector where they will be deployed to protect crops, incorporate a smarter use of pesticides and to help mitigate climate change.

By targeting specific pest species, our pheromones will improve the efficiency of pest management. Pheromone lure packages can be supplied to companies that integrate them into their trap designs within the agribusiness sector, supplying the complete system to farmers and growers.

We are a ‘one stop shop’ for custom development and volume supply of difficult to obtain insect pheromones and we are always looking to expand our product portfolio towards commercially driven targets.
