VERTEC BIOSOLVENTS was created as a result of a patented process for low cost production of lactate ester solvents. In June, 1997 NTEC funded a CRADA (Cooperative Research and Development Agreement) with Argonne National Laboratory (ANL). VERTEC BIOSOLVENTS was created based upon the success of the patented process.
VERTEC BIOSOLVENTS markets and distributes corn derived lactate ester solvents and soybean derived methyl soyate solvents worldwide based upon this important low cost production method. Vertec BioSolvents contemplates a worldwide market potential of several billion pounds a year of lactate ester VERTECBIO EL and lactate ester methyl soyate VERTECBIO GOLD sales by 2010.
It no longer costs more to use an environmentally friendly natural grain derived solvent. In fact, it may cost less.
