About the show and the Uniphos team<\/h2>\n

The purpose of the 2016 Expo, held February 27 \u2013 March 1, was to connect exhibitors like Uniphos with thousands of grain handling and processing professionals looking for operations solutions, explained Rahul Singh, Vice President (Business) at Uniphos Envirotronic Pvt. Ltd. Singh came from the Uniphos head office in India along with Uniphos founder Rajju Shroff to attend the Exchange. They were joined there by the U.S. team of Brent Yaschuk, CEO; Al Musser, Western U.S. Sales Manager; and Mark DelSantro of UPI.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Why FumiSpec-Lo was in high demand<\/h2>\n

The team soon discovered that the FumiSpec-Lo SO2<\/sub>F2<\/sub> leak detector was the main topic of conversation with attendees at the Exchange. \u201cWith its ability to detect sulfuryl fluoride at the threshold limit value (TLV) of 5 ppm and lower, and its many advantages over the competition, it generated a lot of interest with the fumigators who attended this show,\u201d said Singh.<\/p>\n

Yaschuk added that the reason for the high level of interest with this particular audience is because SO2<\/sub>F2 <\/sub>is a highly specific fumigant used to control a number of rodents and insects such as termites, bed bugs and other wood destroying insects in addition to insects that may be transported from the field on food commodities. \u201cThis might include the navel orange worm, codling moth and chestnut weevil,\u201d said Yaschuk, noting that SO2<\/sub>F2 <\/sub>controls all insect pest life stages, including eggs.<\/p>\n

\u201cDepending on the extent of the infestation, fumigation might be the only solution,\u201d said Yaschuk, adding that the FumiSpec-Lo leak detector ensures the environment is safe for re-entry after the fumigation process is completed.<\/p>\n

Yaschuk added that FumiSpec-Lo is suitable for applications related to personal protection and safety, and also for leak detection when used with a sampling probe.<\/p>\n
