NuEarth Successfully Completes First North American Trial of AquaSolv as a Pesticide Carrier and Adjuvant
MIRAMAR BEACH, Fla., March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NuEarth Corporation (Pink Sheets: NUEC) ("NuEarth"), a manufacturer and marketer of "Clean & Green" products and technology, today announced that it has successfully completed its first contract for the usage of the all natural AquaSolv product line as a Pesticide Carrier and Adjuvant with Jasper Agro Development.
"The successful completion of this agreement is a major milestone in our Company's progress and growth. This contract represents the first contract for the use of the all natural and biodegradable AquaSolv in the Americas as a pesticide carrier and adjuvant," said Alfon Rosalini, Senior Vice President of NuEarth.
The market for carrier oils and adjuvants in pesticide formulations is estimated by the USDA in excess of $160 million in the USA and more than $528 million worldwide. The use of carrier oils includes mineral oil, diesel oil and vegetable oils. The use of diesel oil and mineral oils, even at the relatively low levels used in agricultural applications, is a source of environmental and public concern. "Replacement of petroleum-based oils by AquaSolv is a potential growth market opportunity for NuEarth as petroleum oil prices continue to escalate, and petroleum contamination and poisoning remain a major health concern," said Alfon Rosalini, Senior Vice-President of NuEarth.
In agricultural use, AquaSolv is readily biodegradable and low in toxicity to both humans and non-targeted wildlife, providing both a worker-safety and environmental advantage. "Support for use of AquaSolv over petroleum products should find wide favor, especially among farmers," said Steve Young CEO of NuEarth.
"Our Laboratory staff at TerraSolv have been field-testing AquaSolv, as a carrier for pesticide, under real world conditions over the last six months in South America and in Central America in cooperation with the Avalon Group with dramatic results," said Steve Young CEO of NuEarth. The use of AquaSolv has been proven to be a direct substitute for petroleum spay oils and surfactants. AquaSolv has also been proven to improve the efficiency of some pesticides in field trials.
TerraSolv / LIA is a state-of-the-art development and testing lab, which collects data from clients around the world to run projects simulations ranging from usability, capacity, spread and weather modeling testing.
