Cytec to Promote Innovative Fumigation Technologies at GEAPS Exchange EXPO 2012

Woodland Park, NJ – February 24, 2012 - Cytec Industries Inc. (NYSE: CYT) will highlight its fumigant technologies and products at the upcoming 2012 GEAPS Exchange in Minneapolis, MN March 3rd – March 6th.

Cytec’s fumigant products provide consistent, safe and easily controlled phosphine concentrations that maximize the protection of sealed storage facilities from harmful insects and pests. The company’s innovative technology makes it a global leader in stored-product protection.

Cytec’s family of cylinderized phosphine products, including non-flammable ready-to-use ECO2FUME® fumigant gas and VAPORPH3OS® phosphine fumigant for on-site blending with ambient air, offer critical performance and safety advantages over traditional fumigants for food, and non-food applications. These cost-effective products eliminate direct contact with the chemical and confined space entry, they generate no waste or residues, reduce flammability risk and deliver exceptional dispersion and penetration qualities for a wide range of commodities. They are easy to use and provide the ability to quickly achieve precise control of phosphine concentrations within minutes or hours rather than days. This ability makes them the only EPA approved phosphine product with a 24-hour fumigation period. ECO2FUME® and VAPORPH3OS® have proven to be economical and more environmentally friendly alternatives to Methyl Bromide, Aluminum Phosphide, Magnesium Phosphide and Sulfuryl Fluoride.
This year, Cytec proudly celebrates 10 years of successful partnership with Fosfoquim of Chile, the manufacturer of the unique HDS™ systems to allow on-site blending of VAPORPH3OS® phosphine fumigant with ambient air.
