Our professional chemical formulations made for us by Renovo Technologies in New Zealand have a product lifetime guarantee. We are so confident of the high manufacturing standard at Renovo that if the product formulation breaks down before its use-by-date, Renovo will replace the entire container - no matter how much has been used up by the spray technician.
Key Industries allocate valuable time and resources to thoroughly test each product we develop or exclusively source from other suppliers to ensure they work effectively in New Zealand conditions. We are driven to ensure that New Zealand producers always get a high quality product that performs effectively in our unique environment.
Key Industries has a strong focus on developing and providing BioGro approved natural products suited to the New Zealand environment. We offer a variety of natural products for both the ag-hort and pest control markets. We continue to build on our extensive knowledge of organic chemistry as we develop new products to meet the increasing demand for natural, non-toxic options.
Key Industries work to save you money and to protect our environment, by providing high quality products such as our adjuvant range. These can minimise chemical spray losses and wastage when applied and reduce the need to re-apply agrichemicals as they seal in the active ingredient. Some formulations are made in high concentrations which means fewer applications and less environmental impact due to repeated applications. Other products maximise the effectiveness of pest control or ag-hort products simply by ensuring that they mix well in the spray tank. We are always keen to provide training on our products and often assist customers by developing Integrated Pest Management Programmes through our consultancy services. IPM services can save money on spray applications and protect valuable crops using a range of strategies, from the correct use of adjuvants, using non-chemical tactics and ensuring application is done at exactly the right time of day or crop development stage. As well as promoting strategies to reduce the amount of chemicals that enter the environment, native biodiversity is a priority at Key Industries. Many of our products are very effective in the control of invasive exotic species such as wasps, Argentine ants, Darwin ants, possums and so on, which threaten our native flora and fauna.
With an ongoing commitment to Research and Development, Key Industries invest heavily in developing new products to meet the emerging needs of Kiwi growers. Read more about how important this is to our business and why it benefits our customers.
