Provivi® and Andermatt Announce European Distribution Agreement
Provivi and Andermatt have announced an exclusive European distribution agreement for Lobesia Eco Dispensers and Lobesia + Eupoecilia Eco Dispensers, combining Provivi's pheromone-based crop protection with Andermatt's leadership in biological solutions to support Integrated Pest Management in European vineyards.
Two Solutions for European Vineyards
Lobesia Eco Dispensers target Lobesia botrana, one of the most significant pests in viticulture.
Lobesia + Eupoecilia Eco Dispensers provide a combined solution for Lobesia botrana and Eupoecilia ambiguella, addressing dual pest pressure in vineyards.
Both pests cause severe damage to grape clusters and increase the risk of fungal infections. Effective management is critical to maintaining grape quality, yield, and compliance with stringent export standards. These Eco Dispensers utilize pheromone-based mating disruption technology to reduce pest populations without harmful residues, supporting sustainable wine production and biodiversity.
“We are thrilled to expand our partnership with Andermatt into Europe’s viticulture sector,” said Corey Huck, CEO of Provivi. “Our Lobesia and combined Lobesia + Eupoecilia Eco Dispensers represent proven, safe, and effective solutions that align with growers’ goals for sustainability and quality.”
“This agreement reinforces our commitment to delivering biological solutions that protect crops and the environment,” said Dr Brendon Neumann, Director Product Portfolio, at Andermatt. “Together with Provivi, we are enabling European wine producers to adopt innovative tools that meet market demands for residue-free, high-quality grapes.”
