Following the acquisition of Belchim Crop Protection NV by Mitsui & Co Ltd., the Andermatt Biocontrol Group was approved by the European Commission (EC) to become remedy taker of the divestments package related to the distribution of the product Biox-M in Germany, Poland, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Norway. Biox-M is a product manufactured and registered by the French company XEDA International.
The product is based on mint oil and acts as a plant growth regulator to control the sprouting of potatoes. The distribution of Biox-M fits very well to the key competence of the Andermatt Biocontrol Group of providing products and services for organic crop protection.
The Andermatt Biocontrol Group has been successfully commercializing Biox-M in Switzerland for several years and therefore has thorough knowledge about the product and its application fields.
The Distribution of Biox-M by the Andermatt Biocontrol Group is effective from 6, May 2021 and will be handled through the local entities of the Andermatt Biocontrol Group; in Germany by Biofa GmbH, by Andermatt Polska in Poland, and Andermatt Biocontrol AG in Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Norway.
