Fumigation services for stored grains

At Ecotec Fumigation, we are experts in the fumigation of grains stored in silos and warehouses, offering effective solutions to guarantee the quality and safety of your products. Our service focuses on the use of advanced techniques, including phosphine fumigation , as well as tablets and pellets, complemented by the innovative HDS (Horn Diluphos System) machine. We also implement an integrated pest management (IPM) approach to ensure complete and sustainable control.

Common Problems in Storage Facilities and Silos

Storage facilities and silos face various problems that can compromise the quality of stored grains. One of the main concerns is pest infestation, which can arise due to inadequate storage conditions, such as high humidity and high temperatures. These conditions not only favor insect growth but also the development of fungi and bacteria, which can result in significant losses.

Furthermore, a lack of regular monitoring and proper maintenance can lead to a buildup of residue and grain debris, creating an environment conducive to infestations.

Late detection of pests can result in irreversible damage to stored products, affecting both the profitability and reputation of the business.

Phosphine Fumigation

Phosphine fumigation is one of the most effective methods for pest control in stored grains. This gas acts on all stages of insect development, from eggs to adults, ensuring complete elimination of pests such as the chestnut triboly and the wheat flour moth.

  • Efficiency: Phosphine diffuses rapidly through the grain, reaching difficult areas where other methods may fail.
  • Safety: This method is safe when applied correctly, following the relevant rules and regulations.

To facilitate the fumigation process, we offer aluminum phosphide tablets and pellets. These products are easy to handle and allow for precise application:

  • Tablets: Designed to release phosphine gas gradually.
  • Pellets: Provide controlled release of gas.

Both formats are ideal for adapting to the specific needs of your operation, ensuring effective control without compromising grain quality.

HDS machine (Horn Diluphos System)

The HDS machine is a key innovation in our fumigation service. This system allows for:

  • Efficient Application: HDS provides uniform distribution of phosphine gas throughout the treated space, ensuring that every corner is reached.
  • Reduction in Treatment Time: Thanks to its advanced design, the HDS machine optimizes the time required to perform fumigation, allowing for a faster and more efficient process.
  • Precise Monitoring: Equipped with advanced technology, our machines allow for constant monitoring throughout treatment, ensuring optimal conditions for gas effectiveness.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

We create a comprehensive approach through integrated pest management (IPM). This approach combines several strategies to ensure effective and sustainable control:

  1. Prevention: We implement preventive measures that include rigorous cleaning and proper maintenance of the facilities.
  2. Continuous Monitoring: We use traps and surveillance systems to detect early infestations.
  3. Direct Control: We apply specific treatments according to the needs identified during monitoring.

At Ecotec Fumigation, we are committed to offering comprehensive solutions for the fumigation and preservation of stored grains. With our expertise in the use of phosphine, tablets, pellets, and the HDS machine, along with our focus on integrated pest management, we ensure that your grains remain protected from infestations.
