Netherlands: SYN-Formalin 37% approval now complete

Apart from the authorization (authorization number 13525 N) as a means to combat bacteria, yeasts, fungi and viruses (in empty spaces intended for the cultivation of edible and ornamental plants and mushrooms) Dutch logistical company Synerlogic has also obtained a temporary exemption for SYN-Formalin 37% for the disinfection of flower bulbs.

Ronald de Vreede of Houweling, "SYN-Formaldehyde 37% is now the only biocide based on Formaldehyde for safe, responsible and authorized use in Dutch horticulture."

Previously, any type of formalin could be used. Now that a biocidal product is required, only the SYN-Formalin 37% is permitted. After the expiry of the automatic authorization of Formalin and the necessary authorization necessary for biocides, Synerlogic (after two years of intensive work) has full authorization for horticulture. Additionally, for the spraying and disinfection of greenhouses for vegetable propagation only an authorized product can be used, and now that product is SYN-Formalin 37%.

The distribution of the SYN-Formalin 37% will be handled by Houweling Horticulture.
