Wooden applications are highly susceptible to termite attacks as they are composed of cellulose which is the primary diet of these termites. Moreover crops are also vulnerable to attacks by insects both subterranean and otherwise. Thermoplastics materials have always attracted insects. The plasticizers & the aromatic odors of polymers, the bright colors & the texture of polymer products attract insects.. Moreover all these are sensitive applications where the choice of treatment needs to be not only effective but also non toxic and non hazardous.
Termirepel®™ does not kill but only only keeps away the insect by making use of the sensory mechanisms. Aggressive species are further deterred from attacking by advanced mechanisms like aversion, feeding deterrents, mating disruption, reproduction cycle inhibition, growth impairment and chemo sterilization thus modifying their response towards the Termirepel®™ containing products resulting in them staying away from the application. Thus, Termirepel®™ actually helps in modifying insect behavior.

Termirepel®™ follows a unique 6 pronged strategy aimed at repelling termites and insects from the application, thus safeguarding the latter and prolonging the active life of the same. The same is affected in a manner which is effective while at the same time not harmful to the environment, human beings. |
Termirepel®™ is designed particularly for polymer applications. Termirepel®™ molecules are stable up to 1400oC which can withstand almost all polymer processing temperatures. As (air) temperature increases, vapour hazards will increase. |
Termirepel®™ has been developed for application in the construction, agricultural and plastics industry. Thus it caters to a wide ranging and diverse portfolio of applications effectively and consistently. |
