We also comply with PCPBK principles in the treatment of Plants.

Guaranteeing Efficacy

• Gas measuring and monitoring equipment is used throughout the treatment, guaranteeing that the correct amount of fumigant gas is inserted into the area, and
• gas lines will provide accurate readings to ensure the efficacy of the treatment.
• Specialised gas leakage detection tools are used to identify any gas leakages, so that remedial actions can be taken.
• Our technicians wear personal protective breathing and safety equipment throughout a fumigation treatment, keeping them safe.

After any fumigation work has been carried out, full aeration is required to expel the fumigant and only once these readings are at the acceptable level, will the work be deemed to have been  completed.
