Seipasa

What Seipasa does

Seipasa is a Spanish agricultural biotechnology company founded in 1998 and headquartered in Tardienta, Huesca, with manufacturing operations in L'Alcàdia, Valencia. The company designs, registers, and commercializes a portfolio of natural-origin crop protection and nutrition products — bioinsecticides, biofungicides, bioherbicides, biostimulants, and fertilizer/correctors — built on its proprietary Natural Technology® R&D model. The model is supported by four specialized facilities: a botanical extracts laboratory, a microbiology laboratory, a formulation laboratory, and an experimental field center. Notable patented formulations include Pirecris (Spanish patent ES2444991A1, a broad-spectrum botanical insecticide), Fungisei (an award-winning patented biofungicide), Seican (cinnamaldehyde-based fungicide/insecticide), Dasword (a four-molecule organosulfur formulation), and Basei Mg (a magnesium-hydroxide foliar fungicide with 0-day pre-harvest interval). More than 50% of Seipasa's products are certified for organic agriculture under European, American, and Japanese standards, and the company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and EMAS certifications.

Seipasa sells its products to professional farmers and specialty crop growers (citrus, grapevines, olives, stone fruit, vegetables, berries, nuts, cereals, rice, and potatoes) across more than 25 countries spanning Europe, Latin America, North America, Africa, and the Middle East. Its go-to-market is primarily channel-led: products are distributed through a network of local agricultural input distributors and resellers, with country-specific market selectors on a multilingual website (7 languages). Direct commercial offices in Huesca and Valencia serve the Spanish market, and a flagship strategic partnership with Valent BioSciences (announced November 2025) provides distribution into the United States. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies by country and channel; phytosanitary registration status by jurisdiction dictates the available portfolio in each market.

The company is privately held (Sociedad Anónima), with no parent entity or disclosed cap table. Its leadership includes CEO Pedro Peleato (founder-era CEO), Commercial Director José Ángel Talavera, Marketing Director Juan Manuel López, Communications Director Carlos Muñoz, and Quality/Environment Director Puig Mora. Seipasa has received public R&D grant support from the Valencian Institute of Business Competitiveness (IVACE) under the EU Horizon 2020 programme (2016, 2018), Spanish National Innovation Award 2020 recognition in the SME category, Agrow Awards 2017 Best Formulation Innovation for Fungisei, and Cepyme 500 ranking inclusion (two consecutive years). Sustainability metrics include 100% renewable energy consumption, 40% solar self-sufficiency, 95% waste valorization, 0 wastewater discharge to sewer, and 84% domestic suppliers.

Revenue model

1. Sales of agricultural bioinput products: Seipasa generates revenue by designing, registering, and selling its own portfolio of bioinsecticides, biofungicides, bioherbicides, biostimulants, fertilizers/correctors, and nutritional products to farmers and agricultural distributors. The company operates in more than 25 countries through its own subsidiaries and a distributor network, with country-specific market selection on its website.
2. Country-specific product portfolio sales: Seipasa maintains distinct product portfolios registered and available for sale in specific national markets (Belgium, Chile, Cyprus, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Egypt, Spain, France, Greece, Guatemala, Ireland, Italy, Morocco, Mexico, Peru, Poland, Portugal, UK, Dominican Republic, Tunisia, Turkey, USA, World Wide), enabling localized revenue capture as new phytosanitary registrations are obtained.
3. New bioherbicide global registration initiative (2024): In April 2024, Seipasa announced the registration of a new bioherbicide globally, expanding its commercial product range beyond insecticides, fungicides, and biostimulants into the bioherbicide category.
4. Strategic partnership-driven revenue (U.S. biostimulants): Through the Valent BioSciences strategic partnership, Seipasa introduces novel biostimulant products to the U.S. market, leveraging the partner's distribution and commercialization capabilities to generate revenue in the world's largest agricultural inputs market.
