Milliken launches line aimed at seed treatment in Brazil

Milliken do Brasil, a North American company specializing in materials science, received certification from the Seedcare Institute, Syngenta, and the ABC Foundation. By launching Milli Solum and Milli Fusion on the national market, the company reinforces its commitment to developing excellent polymer solutions for coating seeds of major crops such as corn, soybeans, wheat, cotton, barley, among others.

The products offer more flexibility to customers (seeders), both in adjusting properties and aesthetics. “It is a concept, a good practice that has been tested, approved and is currently being worked on in the agricultural sector in the United States. We seek solutions for good, for people and the environment, meeting the needs of the Brazilian agricultural sector”, says Ivan Francischini Junior, Senior Account Manager at Milliken.

According to the expert, another distinguishing feature of Milliken is the service provided after the sale, with technical assistance that helps with organization and customer training. “We have a specialized team to guide our customers from planning to the final seed treatment operation.-. We sell technological solutions that include products and services, also providing companies with support for adjusting equipment and training for teams,” he added.

Quality certifications

With a focus on agronomic research, the ABC Foundation is recognized throughout the country for its demanding and rigorous evaluation of products and technologies that are made available to more than 5.000 rural producers affiliated with partner Cooperatives, such as Frísia, Castrolanda, Capal, as well as other contributors . Syngenta's Seedcare Institute is an institute for the development of technologies and application in seeds, which offers a service for the evaluation and technical validation of inputs used in seeds, including polymers. This service aims to recommend technologies to the numerous clients they have in Brazil.

Milliken's launches reach the market with two approvals that prove the quality of the products. “They passed a rigorous review, being approved by the Syngenta Seedcare Institute. Now, they will be recommended by the company. These validations help a lot in the market, even more so now, with the change in Milliken's communication with the Milli Solum and Milli Fusion products”, highlights the manager.
