Description
Overview

2.4-D-based herbicides (made of 2.4 dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) have been used for 50 years. They are selective for controlling wide-leaf underbrush in several grass crops (winter cereals, corn, sorghum, sugarcane, prairies and green pastures, railway tracks). High efficiency and relative low cost have been responsible for continuing 2.4 D use for several decades.

Output

In Argentina , Atanor has synthesized 2.4-D acid since 1954 in its plant located in Río Tercero ( Province of Cordoba ) by means of a highly integrated process. 2.4-D acid is then used to formulate different herbicides in San Nicolás factory (in the Province of Buenos Aires). Atanor is the sole MERCOSUR 2.4 D producer and is the sole worldwide 2.4-D industrially integrated producer. See Industrial Process.

Atanor ranks second in worldwide 2.4-D output. More than a half of its manufacture is exported to different countries, the most important of which are USA and Brazil in terms of exported volumes.

Our sales rate and integrated output allow Atanor to ensure quality and ongoing supply to its customers.
