One of Exwold's long established customers, based in Ireland, acquired a forestry herbicide granule as part of a portfolio of products it bought from a Japanese trading house.

The manufacturing process which Exwold was asked to perform, to process the product, was overly complex and gave a very low yield of finished product.

Through our expertise and innovative approach to contract processing we "re-engineered" the granule coating process using our Munsen drum mixer plant.

In 2004, Exwold was approached by a large, privately owned American crop chemicals company following its purchase of an older "off-patent" herbicide from a multi-national company.

The product is a granule for direct, non-dispersible application into the soil (GR type). The active ingredient is supplied in bulk tankers as a liquid concentrate, which is stored in two dedicated 30,000L bulk tanks.
