In 2018 Adama<\/a> held a competition for the termiticide product Warden with Adama\u2019s distributor Globe Pest Solutions<\/a>. The winners were those who achieved the largest growth in sales of Warden Termiticide in Australia.<\/p>\n

The winners \u2013 Kevin Parsons<\/strong> (national operations and key account manager), Rick<\/strong> Szymanski<\/strong> (branch manager, Gold Coast, pictured above) and Garry English<\/strong> (branch manager, Sydney, pictured above)\u00a0\u2013 were flown to Houston, Texas for a tour of the Adama\/Control Solutions production site before travelling\u00a0to Orlando, Florida for the 2018 PestWorld Conference held at the Walt Disney World Resort.<\/p>\n

The Globe team spent the afternoon in Houston\u2019s bayside suburb of Kemah before visiting\u00a0the Control Solutions site, where they were shown around the facility. The visit included a tour of the new aerosol line and microencapsulation plant led by Chuck Sutton<\/strong> (director of operations) who impressed them with his knowledge and experience. Mr Parsons said that they \u201cwere very impressed by how modern and well organised the whole place was.\u201d Howard Stoddard<\/strong> (operations manager) then took the Globe team on a stimulating visit of the NASA Space Centre.<\/p>\n

The next stop was Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida to attend the 2018 PestWorld conference\u00a0and to meet with Marie Knox<\/strong> at the Control Solutions stand. Ms Knox (director of product development and regulatory) outlined the Adama\/Control Solutions business model and its range of chemicals, explaining the company\u2019s focus on combination chemistry, pressurised solutions\u00a0and encapsulation technology. The Globe team also had the opportunity to meet with Mark Boyd (president of Control Solutions), one of the original owners of the business who continues to be a shareholder today.<\/p>\n

The US trip also gave Globe Pest Solutions a preview of the pipeline of products expected from Adama in Australia over the coming years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
