"The DE SANGOSSE products have been on the UK market since early 1990s, but the DE SANGOSSE Ltd subsidiary was created in 2005 further to acquisition of LOVELAND, a company specialised in adjuvants" explains Jean-François TESTUT, Molluscicides Manager in this area.

Today, the DE SANGOSSE Group is leader in this country on Molluscicides and Adjuvants markets with a global turnover of £11.5 millions on those 2 segments.

"The Molluscicides market is very challenged with many "low quality" products and we expect to bring this major market (2nd market after France) upwards by innovation. The TDS concept was launched 2 years ago and it is a real success" comments Jean-François TESTUT.

Concerning Adjuvants and auxiliary products, the challenge is also to develop new concepts like the new "Pod-Stik" product that prevents oilseed rape pods from opening during ripening.

Finally, DE SANGOSSE also wishes to develop rodenticides products of LIPHATECH range.
