TyraTech is pioneering a new class of highly effective, non-toxic, pesticides and anti-parasitic compounds to address global agriculture, horticulture, functional foods, healthcare and veterinary markets. Using a revolutionary chemoreceptor screening process, TyraTech has identified natural oils that stimulate the reactions and biological behaviour of insects and parasites so that they can be effectively repelled or killed. TyraTech’s technology prevents the development of resistance and avoids the environmental concerns and human health risks of chemical solutions whilst still being at least, if not more, effective.
The Company’s products have been validated through strong partnerships with multinational conglomerates operating within a growing US$30 billion worldwide market that is being increasingly driven by environmental legislation and end-user demand.
TyraTech’s discovery platform has been tested and verified by global corporations and independent laboratory test facilities around the world. These test results include total mosquito lavicidal mortality in one hour, mosquito repellent at least equal to DEET, full head lice mortality in less than five minutes and complete intestinal parasite mortality in five minutes, amongst others.
TyraTech continues to develop new product applications based on safe, natural ingredients with a broad range of partners around the world.
