Cytec Promotes Phosphine Fumigation
Technology at CAF
Woodland Park, NJ – October 10, 2012 - Cytec Industries Inc.
(NYSE: CYT) will be a main sponsor and exhibit its phosphine
fumigant technologies and products at the International
Conference on Controlled Atmosphere and Fumigation in Stored
Products (CAF) on October 15 – 19, 2012 in Antalya, Turkey.
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
traditional fumigants.
