Rob Pronk on microplastic-free coatings

Business, Innovation, Sustainability
14 Aug 2020

Rob Pronk, Incotec's Gloal Marketing Manager, was interviewed recently on the topic of microplastic-free seed coatings.  In anticipation of European legislation expected to ban the use of microplastics in seed coatings, Incotec is developing a new range of microplastic-free film coatings. The first two of these were recently launched.

In the article Rob explains how much research precedes the development of the new microplastic-free film coatings, without compromising on quality. As well as the necessity of complying with future European legislation in order to be ready for the future, Rob talks about Mission Zero, Incotec's sustainability strategy, which strives to minimize the impact of Incotec's products on the environment and always look for the most sustainable solution.
It's a complex task because each seed variety is different and reacts differently to the different additions of ever-changing - and increasingly organic - crop protection products. All these different puzzles that need to be solved and will continue to be solved into the future.
