Securalink (TM) Closed System Developmentsin Cotton Insecticides for 2000

John Backscheider


 
ABSTRACT

Securalink-G starts with improved health and safety for the grower. In a market study conducted by Sotera Systems, growers indicated their number one concern in handling chemicals was their risk of exposure. The convenience of the 2½ gallon or 10 liter jug, combined with an extended application season and millions of jugs on the market, makes safety in this area a very real concern. Securalink-G designates a system for closed delivery of crop protectants, which is simple and effective for all users from the largest custom applicator to the individual grower.

Following the first-season introduction of Securalink-G in 1999, Sotera initiated several changes and improvements in system design, based on user feedback. These changes improve the rate of transfer, the ease of use and the ability to rinse a standard jug in a closed system.
