Syngenta has announced that Advion Ant Gel and Advion Cockroach Gel have also received the prestigious international HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) certification in Italy for use in the food industry in Splash or Spill Zones (SSZ).
This certification reaffirms Advion gels as the ideal solution for use in food handling areas, such as kitchens, or food production and processing areas.
The HACCP certification for Advion gels represents a confirmation of the unique qualities of the gels produced by Syngenta and a testament to the company’s commitment to providing innovative and sustainable pest control solutions, in line with the needs of the professional pest control industry.
Read the full announcement on Syngenta Professional Pest Management Italy’s website.
The HACCP certification is granted by HACCP International, the leading independent certification body specializing in evaluating the quality and safety of equipment, products, and services for the food industry.
Food companies must operate according to high food safety and quality standards, which require careful evaluation in the selection of non-food materials and equipment that may have a significant impact on food safety.
With the HACCP International certification, pest control professionals can confidently use Advion gels even in sensitive environments, such as food processing plants, restaurants, and other areas where food safety is critical.
The international HACCP certification of Advion gels is further confirmation of their favorable environmental profile. Thanks to their unique bioactivation feature, Advion Ant Gel and Advion Cockroach Gel act effectively by distinguishing between target insects and non-target organisms.
The slight delay in mortality allows the target insect to return to its shelter and contaminate other insects, leading to greater control of the pest population.
The fact that the active ingredient becomes truly lethal only inside the target insect allows pest control professionals to better manage the control of pest insects while minimizing negative environmental effects.
Advion Gels are HACCP SSZ Certified (Splash or Spill Zone): Products suitable for use in food handling areas such as kitchens, production areas, and processing areas, but not suitable for direct contact with food or objects that will come into contact with food.
