At AgXelerators we understand that a good formulation can be the driving force behind successful commercialization. It can also make the difference between a product that is profitable and one that fails. Our decades-long expertise in formulation design and development ensures that your concepts have the best chance to thrive in the market. We are committed to helping you create profitable products that excel in production agriculture and will leverage our vast network of connections in industry and academia to help you succeed.
An interdisciplinary team of experts in biology, chemistry, formulation, regulatory and commercial will collaborate on the design of your formulation to determine most effective strategy for a successful commercial product.
We’ll work with you to crystallize the vision for the product that will not only guide the direction for development but also establish boundaries on what the product is not, so that the focus and goals are clear.
With the vision in mind, we will craft the best course to rapidly prototype, test, develop, and register your new product for production agriculture and deliver the ultimate end-user experience.
A successful formulation optimizes the stability, efficacy, safety, and usability of the product while ensuring its compatibility with application methods and minimizing any adverse impacts on the environment, non-target organisms, and human health. Our goal is to transform your active ingredient into a practical, suitable, and efficient product that is easily applied by growers and agronomists.
Choosing the appropriate active ingredient(s) based on their intended use, mode of action, target pests or diseases, and compatibility with the desired formulation type
Determining the type of formulation that best suits the active ingredient(s) and the desired application method. Common formulation types include liquids (emulsifiable concentrates, suspension concentrates, oil dispersions), solids (wettable powders, granules), and gases (fumigants).
Ensuring compatibility between the active ingredient(s) and other components of the formulation, such as solvents, emulsifiers, stabilizers, adjuvants, and carriers.
Formulating products that maintain the stability of the active ingredient(s) over time, considering factors like temperature, humidity, UV light, and storage conditions.
Developing formulations that preserve the efficacy of the active ingredient(s) and deliver consistent pest or disease control or nutrient supply when applied under real-world conditions.
Designing formulations that are suitable for various application methods, such as spraying, seed treatment, soil application, and foliar application.
Ensuring that the formulated product is safe for users, including farmers and applicators, by reducing toxicological risks and providing proper handling and application instructions.
Minimizing negative environmental impacts, such as runoff, leaching, and non-target effects, through proper formulation design and application recommendations.
Developing formulations that meet regulatory requirements and guidelines for safety, labeling, efficacy, and environmental impact.
Optimizing the physical properties of the formulation, such as viscosity, particle size, pH, and adhesion, to enhance product performance and ease of application.
Ensuring that the formulated product can be manufactured at a reasonable cost and with consistent quality on a large scale
Conducting compatibility tests to assess the stability and performance of the formulated product when mixed with other pesticides, fertilizers, or adjuvants.
Establishing quality control processes to monitor and maintain the consistency, quality, and effectiveness of the formulated products.
Conducting field trials to evaluate the formulated product’s performance under real-world conditions and comparing it to existing products or untreated controls.
Preparing accurate and informative product labels, technical data sheets, and safety information for users and regulatory authorities.
