Liphatech Inc. a longtime industry provider of rodent control solutions, will launch the first of several insect control products in the third quarter of 2025, beginning with an innovative 25(b) exempt technology, as well as a pheromone-based monitoring device for the control of additional nuisance insects. These new offerings are the result of exclusive licensing and distribution agreements Liphatech recently entered with two European companies, Pertinent Eco-Solutions and Arctech Innovation.
“The acquisition of new technologies are all done with one focus in mind: our customers. We are very excited to introduce a wide variety of insect control products to help pest control businesses expand by appealing to the needs of environmentally conscious customers,” Liphatech CEO Manny Martinez said in a news release.
About Liphatech
With U.S. headquarters based in Milwaukee, Wis., Liphatech is a worldwide manufacturer of pest control products. It is considered to be the developer of three of the industry’s active ingredients: chlorophacinone, bromadiolone and difethialone. The company was founded in France in 1946 io develop anticoagulants for the treatment of heart patients. It developed chlorophacinone in the 1960s and branded it as Rozol, a family of products that includes grain and pelleted products for field and structural use, and a tracking powder for use in and around structures. In the 1970s, Liphatech developed bromadiolone, its original second-generation rodenticide active ingredient.
The innovations continued with the opening of its U.S. facility in 1987. Research there and in Europe resulted in the discovery of difethialone during the late 1980s, with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency registration as an active ingredient in 1995.
