Health Care on Ships

Protecting your crew, your vessel, and the value of your cargo. At Ecotec Fumigation, we provide comprehensive pest prevention, monitoring, and eradication solutions for the global maritime and agro-export market. We operate under the highest safety standards in the main port terminals of Argentina and Brazil, ensuring your cargo reaches its destination smoothly.

Security, Traceability, and International Compliance

The agro-export trade has no room for error. The presence of pests in holds or operational areas not only risks the crew's health but can also result in cargo rejection, port delays, and millionaire economic losses.

With a strategic presence in Brazil and Argentina, Ecotec Fumigation positions itself as your regional strategic partner. We unify criteria, certifications, and operational excellence in both countries so your fleet receives a standardized, safe, and highly effective treatment in any South Atlantic port where you operate.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Sanitary Treatment on Ships

To help resolve the most common doubts that industry professionals consult daily, we have prepared this quick guide:

What are the pest control requirements for cargo ships in Argentine and Brazilian ports? Both countries, as agro-export powerhouses, require strict compliance with the International Health Regulations (IHR). Every vessel must have a valid Ship Sanitation Control Certificate, proving that its holds, galleys, and cabins are free of vectors (insects and rodents). Ecotec guarantees that the applied treatments comply with SENASA (Argentina), and ANVISA and MAPA (Brazil) regulations.

Does the sanitary treatment service affect the vessel's operational turnaround times? We understand that in the maritime sector, time is money. Our protocols are designed to be agile and adapt to port operational windows. The prior technical inspection allows us to accurately calculate application and ventilation times, minimizing any delays in your loading or unloading operations.

Is the disinsection treatment safe for the crew and the transported cargo? Absolutely. At Ecotec Fumigation, we exclusively use authorized products and procedures that do not leave harmful toxic residues. The entire process is carried out under strict biosecurity protocols, defining restricted areas and safe re-entry times to protect both human health and the agro-food quality of the cargo.

What exactly does the empty hold treatment include? This service is critical before loading grain or other bulk merchandise. It includes visual inspection, technical cleaning (if required), the application of disinsection agents to eliminate residual pests from previous cargoes in corners or crevices, and surface disinfection to ensure an environment that is 100% suitable to receive the new cargo.
