Salmonellicide and fungicide application

Protect your grains, meals, by-products, and animal feed ingredients against microbiological risks with Ecotec Fumigation. We are continental leaders in high-precision salmonellicide and fungicide treatments, delivering comprehensive food safety and biosecurity solutions designed to mitigate Salmonella sp. contamination and prevent fungal growth and mycotoxins.

Operating under strict international safety standards in Brazil and Argentina, we preserve bulk cargo during storage, transfer, and loading for the world's most demanding agro-export markets.

What is Ecotec Fumigation's Salmonellicide and Fungicide Treatment?

It is an agro-industrial sanitary control and biosecurity measure designed to prevent, control, and eliminate microbiological contamination across the production, storage, logistics, and transportation supply chains of bulk commodities.

Using calibrated, high-precision dosing systems and specialized liquid formulations, we deliver treatments tailored to the thermal, physical, and sanitary profile of each commodity and facility.

This service acts as a vital pillar alongside sanitation measures, environmental control, cross-contamination prevention, and operational traceability.

Critical Challenges We Solve for Agro-Exporters

In global agro-export markets, bacterial presence or fungal decay degrades commercial value rapidly. Our treatment directly addresses:

• Destination Rejections and Seizures: Eliminates financial loss by preventing shipments from exceeding maximum microbiological limits in European, Asian, and American ports.

• Fungal Proliferation and Mycotoxins: Halts nutrient loss, heating in stored grain masses, and mycotoxin formation during long ocean voyages or prolonged storage.

• Infrastructure Cross-Contamination: Sanitizes surfaces, silos, storage cells, and pneumatic or belt conveyor systems prior to and during loading operations.

• Loss of Organoleptic Quality: Preserves protein levels, moisture balance, and natural appearance in meals and bulk ingredients throughout transit.

Step-by-Step Operational Protocol

We blend strict environmental health and safety protocols with continuous inline dosing technology to ensure uniform coverage without interrupting loadout schedules.

Step 1: Perimeter Isolation and EHS Safety Protocol Our technicians establish a dedicated work perimeter to prevent unauthorized entry. All Ecotec personnel wear industrial-grade PPE tailored for handling specialized agricultural treatment products.

Step 2: Facility and Structural Treatment (Floors, Walls, and Silos) To sanitize storage and transfer environments, we apply a high-pressure liquid spray to floors, walls, and structures, neutralizing pre-existing bacterial reservoirs and fungal spores.

Step 3: Automated Application on Moving Cargo (Loading Lines) During vessel, truck, or railcar loading, we install automated, calibrated dosing units above conveyor belts. The system applies a fine micro-droplet spray onto the moving grain or by-product mass, ensuring gram-by-gram distribution before entering holds or silos.

Treatable Commodities and Facilities

We service a wide range of bulk raw materials and logistics infrastructure:

• Grains and Oilseeds: Soybeans, corn, wheat, barley, sunflower seeds, sorghum.

• By-products and Protein Meals: Soybean meal, pellets, wheat bran, oilseed cakes.

• Animal Feed & Pet Food: Animal-origin meals, concentrates, compound feeds, and feed ingredients.

• Logistics Infrastructure: Vessel holds, flat storage cells, vertical silos, loading belts, hoppers, and trucks.

Key Benefits for the South American Agro-Industry

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Does salmonellicide treatment alter grain moisture, color, or overall quality? No. Ecotec uses high-precision micro-droplet systems. Liquid volumes are applied at precise rates per ton to destroy pathogens without adding critical moisture or altering organoleptic, nutritional, or commercial properties.

2. When in the logistics chain should salmonellicide and fungicide treatments be applied? It can be applied at three primary stages:

1. During transfer: On belt conveyors and elevators.

2. During storage: Inside silos or storage cells for long-term fungal control.

3. During final loading: On loading belts conveying cargo directly into vessel holds, railcars, or trucks.

3. Does this treatment replace traditional pest control and fumigation? No, it is a complementary service. While traditional fumigation targets insects and sanitation removes physical debris, salmonellicide and fungicide treatments target microbiological threats (bacteria and fungi).

4. Does the treatment leave harmful residues in animal or human food? Our applications use products authorized by regulatory bodies (such as SENASA in Argentina and MAPA/ANVISA in Brazil). Formulations degrade safely or are certified non-toxic at recommended dosage levels for animal feed and industrial processing.

5. How does Ecotec guarantee uniform coverage on high-volume bulk shipments? We position automated spray systems directly over high-flow conveyor belts, allowing every ton passing through to receive consistent, real-time treatment coverage.
