Innovation and technology is what research and development (R&D) companies bring to the pest control industry. It is these technologies and innovations that can bring increased safety to our environment and work practices, can create consistent results and efficiency in our workplace, which increase pest controller profits.<\/p>\n

When it comes to innovative rodenticide products, Liphatech are world leaders.<\/p>\n

Liphatech<\/a> is part of the De Sangosse Group (France), which has invested heavily in bait formulations for the last 30 years. Research and development, manufacture and commercialisation of innovative rodent control products are Liphatech\u2019s specialist activities. Our modern, state of the art manufacturing facilities are located in Agen, France and Milwaukee, USA.<\/p>\n

Originally Liphatech (known back then as Lipha) was a pharmaceutical company focusing on anticoagulants for the treatment of heart patients.<\/p>\n

It was only in the 1960s with the discovery of their first active ingredient, chlorophacinone \u2013 the first anticoagulant molecule dedicated to rodent control \u2013 that Liphatech focused on rodent control technologies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Liphatech development timeline<\/h2>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Early 1960s \u2013 chlorophacinone. A multi-feed rodenticide that began to replace warfarin.<\/p>\n

Early 1970s \u2013 bromadiolone. The first single feed rodenticide active ingredient was developed.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Late 1980s \u2013 difethialone. Still today, the newest single feed rodenticide available in the global market.<\/p>\n

Generation FirstStrike<\/a> soft bait technology was launched in US and Europe in 2009 and Australia and New Zealand in 2013.<\/p>\n

The local Liphatech business in Australia and New Zealand commenced operations in 2005. Initially Liphatech launched with Maki Original Block<\/a> (bromadiolone) and the Aegis<\/a> range of rat and mice bait stations. Over the past 12 years Liphatech has grown to provide the Australian pest control industry a range of innovative rodent control solutions.<\/p>\n

By working closely with the market and taking on board pest managers\u2019 feedback, Liphatech launched Maki Wrapped & Aegis Trap to fill existing gaps in the Australian market. Maki Wrapped (bromadiolone) was launched in Australia in 2009 to help pest managers improve their rodent control program on sites with high pressure of other pests like slugs, snails or insects.<\/p>\n
