Decco has total coverage in citrus fruit
“Our main objective at Decco is to provide post-harvest solutions right through from picking the fruit to the end consumer”, declared Sergio Gaspar Caldera. Decco’s wax and fungicide solutions are already well-known worldwide. Decco is constantly seeking out new ideas and initiates innovative new projects every year. One of these is Melanite, the novel synthetic fungicide the company launched last year to combat Geotrichum and Penicillium. It covers the gap left by the removal of guazatine from the citrus post-harvest market. Melanite is the only active ingredient to combat the two main post-harvest fungi in citrus fruit. “Mixed with Deccofos, it covers the whole spectre of the fungi that cause almost all post-harvest rots”, explained Sergio Gaspar, who confirmed that Melanite had a successful launch 5 months ago and has been selling well ever since. The Bio line for organic crops is also attracting great interest and has a promising future, as does the range of natural and synthetic product combinations. Decco’s main markets are countries with a strong agricultural sector: Spain, Italy, Israel, the United States, Mexico, Chile, South Africa, China and India. Decco also guarantees the quality of its products and good customer care, through its distributors, for clients in new markets where it does not have a direct presence.
