Exploiting the POWER of NATURE to reduce the impact of hazardous substances on the environment
Chi siamo
The NATURAL POWER LIFE project aims at sustainably replacing hazardous herbicides and biocides with pelargonic acid-based products produced from renewable sources thus reducing the impact of synthetic herbicides and biocides on the environment. The project will: • extend to the European market two broad-spectrum herbicides based on pelargonic acid, one for non-crop amenities and one for agricultural activities. • introduce a new formulation of broad-spectrum biocide based on pelargonic acid. All three products are produced from renewable sources, more specifically from vegetable oil, following a standardized process that does not use ozone in the oxidative cleavage reaction of the vegetable oil. The application of the pelargonic acid-based herbicide for non-crop amenities (municipalities, industrial areas, cemeteries, roads, railways, and other non-cultivated areas) will be extended in at least 3 EU countries (Spain, Germany, and Greece) other than Italy. The application of pelargonic acid-based herbicide for agricultural activities will be extended in at least six agrarian activities, in at least 2 EU countries other than Italy (Spain and Greece), and in 4 agricultural activities in Italy (hazelnut crop, pome fruit, tobacco, and vegetable crops). The performance of the pelargonic acid-based biocide will be demonstrated to initiate pre-marketing activities and launch its large-scale production. The project has the following long-term sustainability goals: • To demonstrate the replicability of the product application in different geographical areas and for different applications. • To assess the environmental, economic, and social sustainability of the products.

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐫𝐚 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐢𝐭𝐞 & 𝐑𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐀𝐫𝐞𝐚 🌞 We're pleased to share the results of our latest tests at the Novara industrial site and railway area this summer. As with our spring tests, we compared 𝐒𝐔𝐍𝐏𝐎𝐖𝐄𝐑®, the #herbicide for professional use with a desiccant and suckering action based on #pelargonicacid from #renewable sources, at concentrations of 10% and 5%, following the same protocol. This repeat comparison helps us gain deeper insights into the performance and efficiency of 𝐒𝐔𝐍𝐏𝐎𝐖𝐄𝐑® under varying conditions. We’re excited about the consistent results and what they mean for future applications. 📊💡 A big thank you to our team for their continued dedication and hard work! 👏 #LifeProject
