Description:
Premium Environmental Products, LLC (PEP) is looking for investment capital to enable further R&D, Marketing and Sales of a pesticide impregnated polymer. PEP has developed a process to impregnate an insecticide in a polymer that extends the insecticide's life to at least 24 months. The resulting product is safe for humans and animals and is otherwise environmentally friendly.

This product has been successfully proven to protect food supplies in transit. In addition, the USDA has found this product to meet its requirements for two-year protection against fire ant infestation in nursery containers.The EPA has cleared the product for use in nursery containers and the company is beginning a sales effort to obtain sales in this area.

1. Agricultural
