Latro Crop Care — Agricultural Solutions

Unique chemical solutions for agriculture

We develop and supply agrochemicals like adjuvants, antifoam agents, emulsifiers, wetting and dispersing agents to ensure better performance and high quality for plant protection and plant nutrition products.

What we solve

Our solution areas

Solutions for Pesticide Formulations

We support pesticide manufacturers by offering cost-effective EMULCORE® Series emulsifiers and DISPERLAT® Series wetting and dispersing agents. We offer high performance recipes for EC, SC, WDG, WP, OD, EW, SL and CS formulation types that we have developed in our certified R&D Center.

EMULCORE® · DISPERLAT®

Adjuvants for Agrochemicals

We offer a wide range of adjuvants such as super-spreading, soil and pH stable adjuvants. The SURFECO® Adjuvant Series improves spray efficiency through better coverage, superior spreading and adhesion by decreasing the surface tension of water.

SURFECO®

Antifoam Solutions

MAXANT® new generation silicone-based antifoam agents provide long term durable foam control and rapid foam knock-down, allowing formulators to improve productivity and preventing time loss for farmers.

Anti-caking Solutions

The LATSIL® Silica Series helps prevent caking with its SiO2 structure. SUSPERIN® powder/liquid anti-caking agents aim to provide a wide range of solutions to the problem of caking caused by moisture absorption in powder & granular fertilizers and pesticides.

Coating Solutions

Coating agents aim to provide controlled release in granular fertilizers and add multiple effects through the coating of different powder fertilizers. Controlled release fertilizers deliver their nutritional effect only when plants need it — that is why fertilizer efficiency increases in the field.
