DuPont Professional Products entered into an exclusive agreement with Agrium Advanced Technologies, of Ontario, Canada, to distribute DuPont Acelepryn insecticide.
“We are very excited to partner with DuPont and bring this new class of chemistry to the Canadian marketplace,” said Doug Hubble, sales and marketing manager for Agrium Advanced Technologies. “With its proven performance and environmental attributes, Acelepryn will fill a very important need for our customers.”
Acelepryn is designed to control white grubs and other turf-damaging pests on a wide range of sites, including golf courses and commercial and residential turf sites. Acelepryn is approved for use to control key pests infesting landscape and recreational turf in Canada.
“By partnering with Agrium Advanced Technologies, we’re able to build on the success that Acelepryn is having in the U.S. market and leverage Agrium’s extensive network throughout Canada,” said Mike McDermott, global business leader for DuPont Professional Products. “Turf professionals are telling us they can eliminate at least one treatment to control surface feeders and save time and money later in the season. Now, turf professionals in Canada can reap the same rewards.”
