TyraChem was established in January 2009 as a joint venture between Chemplast, a division of McNeel International Corporation and TyraTech, a leading natural pesticides company.

TyraChem is poised to tap into the $10 billion dollar world banana market as growers look for safe and effective alternatives to toxic pesticides and insecticides.

TyraChem's proprietary pesticide formulations are derived from natural active oils which make them safe for humans but deadly to insects and pests.
