SAN JOSE, Costa Rica - Sep 27, 2024 - ClearLeaf, a company with proven success in formulating non-toxic agricultural products, today announced that it has been awarded patents for its innovative flagship product, GotaBlanca, in the United States, Japan, and South Korea.
Patent authorities in these markets have validated GotaBlanca´s claims regarding its novel approach to using elemental silver and surface copolymers for antimicrobial control in agriculture. These three approvals expand ClearLeaf´s patent portfolio, which already includes Brazil, China, India, and South Africa, among others.
GotaBlanca represents a breakthrough in crop protection technology. Its unique formulation combines elemental silver with a proprietary copolymer matrix to create a powerful yet safe solution for both pre-harvest and post-harvest applications. This innovative approach allows GotaBlanca to effectively combat a wide range of fungal and bacterial pathogens without the environmental and health risks associated with traditional agrochemicals.
"We are thrilled to add these patents to our growing IP portfolio. These patents pave the way for success for our growing network of distribution partners worldwide,” said Lawrence Pratt, President of ClearLeaf Inc. “It is also a testament to the creativity and effort of our outstanding R&D team.”
Agustín Büchert, Chief Scientific Officer at ClearLeaf, commented on the technology's novelty and effectiveness, saying, "GotaBlanca's innovation lies in its unique design, which allows for broad-spectrum pathogen control while being completely safe for humans, plants, and beneficial organisms. Our extensive field trials across various crops and geographies have consistently demonstrated GotaBlanca's ability to match or exceed the performance of conventional pesticides. This effectiveness, coupled with its ability to promote soil health and biodiversity, truly sets GotaBlanca apart in the agricultural industry."
GotaBlanca is one of the only non-toxic fungi-bactericides currently on the market globally. It is broad-spectrum. It does not cause microbial resistance, and it enhances plant growth while aligning with regenerative agriculture practices. Its versatility allows for application at any stage of the growing cycle, from pre-planting to post-harvest, providing comprehensive protection and extending produce shelf life.
The product's unique properties make it an ideal solution for both conventional and organic farming, addressing the growing demand for sustainable agricultural practices without compromising on efficacy.
