ECO2FUME®

A Reliable Choice When Time and Efficacy Matter Most

ECO2FUME® fumigant gas is a ready-to-use, nonflammable mixture of phosphine and carbon dioxide that enables effective fumigation in a wide variety of sealed-storage applications when used in accordance with the label. It can be an effective alternative to methyl bromide, sulfuryl fluoride and metal phosphide-based fumigants in some applications.  ECO2FUME® is dispensed external to storage or structures using simple techniques that reduce the potential for applicator exposure; it eliminates confined space entry and removes the need for spent fumigant disposal.
