Exosect, a leading provider of Intelligent Pest Management solutions, won the ‘Best New Product’ award for its Exosex SPTab solution at The Society of Food Hygiene and Technology Awards (SOFHT), last month.

The annual SOHFT awards ceremony, held at the Millennium Mayfair Hotel on November 20, recognises and celebrates excellence within the food industry.

Dave Maxwell, of the Hygiene Group, said: “Exosex SPTab is the most innovative product to come on the market for moth control in the last ten years and it thoroughly deserves this recognition. For a considerable time this area of pest control has had a limited number of methods so we are even more delighted that this new product is a green one, as it helps our clients to fulfil their environmental policies”.

Launched in the UK earlier this year, the Exosex SPTab tablet works by attracting male moths to the Entostat powder and female pheromone.

“We are so pleased to have won this award after years of hard work. The use of pheromone technology as a control is very innovative within this sector,” said Georgina Donovan, Exosect’s Professional Products Manager.
