FUGRAN

What FUGRAN does

Fugran is an Argentine-headquartered company founded in 1983 that provides pest control, fumigation, and application systems for the protection of stored grains and agri-food commodities. It serves enterprise clients across the agricultural supply chain — farms, silo storage operators, industrial processors, port terminals, and shipping/maritime logistics — delivering integrated programs that combine proprietary chemistry, on-site fumigation services, and technical support. The company operates as the exclusive representative of Detia Degesch GmbH in Argentina and is structurally embedded in the Detia Degesch Group, with its own office and partner network spanning more than 15 countries and product reach into over 120 countries through the parent group.

The product portfolio is anchored on phosphine-based fumigants, including aluminum phosphide and magnesium phosphide variants in pellets, tablets, plates, strips, and Tyvek pouches, complemented by pyrethroid and organophosphate insecticides (Actellic 50, Actellic plus, Fumetrina), and adjunct safety and innocuity chemistries (Bactemix, MoldPro, SalPro, Virukill). Application is delivered through proprietary hardware platforms, including the SG300, SG3000 PLUS, SG900, and SG900 PLUS automated sprinklers, the J-System recirculation platform, and Fugran Fog+D nebulizers. Differentiation sits in faster-acting magnesium phosphide formulations, organophosphate-resistance alternatives, and automated application hardware rather than off-the-shelf chemistry.

Fugran generates revenue through two streams: (1) one-time product sales of fumigants, insecticides, application systems, and personal protective equipment; and (2) professional fumigation and pest control services delivered via field teams across port facilities, silo storage, industrial sites, and goods in transit. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales through direct offices and regional partners under a contact-based quotation model with no public pricing. The firm holds ISO 9001 certification, GAFTA Approved Fumigator status, and a Board seat at the International Maritime Fumigation Organization (IMFO).
