Biocides are products that combat microorganisms. These are generally used to control and kill harmful and unwanted organisms such as mold, bacteria, algae, insects and rodents. Biocides represent various products such as disinfectants, wood preservatives, rodenticides, antifouling agents (on boats), in-can preservatives, and are used in homes, and public places such as hospitals and industries. Biocide preservation applications are leading the market, accounting for the largest consumption of specialty biocides in both volume and value terms. Despite regulatory pressures, reducing the number of biocides depending on their concentrations in end products, blends of carefully selected biocidal active substances in optimal ratios, coupled with new technical advancements, can provide improved preservation solutions without the need for cautionary labeling.
