Crop health is never improvised. It is formulated in the laboratory.
Frontier chemical research engineered to solve real grower challenges.
Let's Talk01 // SCIENTIFIC IDENTITY & PURPOSE
Science that cultivates progress: over 20 years advancing agriculture with responsibility.
At Zynavia, we translate applied agricultural chemistry into high-precision formulations that safeguard foliar health and per-hectare profitability on export plantations.
“Delivering innovative chemical formulations grounded in deep scientific knowledge and field experience—built on trust, transparency, fairness, and equity.”
With over two decades of experience across Latin America, we understand the phytosanitary demands of export plantations. Every formulation we develop balances pathogen control, synthetic chemical load reduction, and real profitability per hectare.
Our team unites formulating chemists and field agronomists to deliver traceable, transparent answers tailored to international Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) and tropical weather conditions.
Trust & Transparency
We build direct relationships with farm managers and growers, sharing rigorous diagnostics, exact active concentrations, and verifiable field results.
Healthy & Sustainable Crops
Formulations that trigger Systemic Acquired Resistance (SAR) and suppress pathogens without inducing biological resistance in the plantation.
Equity & Forward Vision
Clean chemical technology formulated with low synthetic load, protecting both per-box export profitability and residue-free production.
Research, development, and manufacturing: synergistic chemical technology in every drop.
A 3-stage industrial protocol that transforms standardized phytochemicals and next-generation organosilicone polymers into precision agricultural inputs.
Innovation driven by chemistry
“We innovate through chemistry for the future of agriculture.”
We develop sustainable agrochemical formulations through applied research. Our organic chemistry and agronomy specialists design clean active complexes that maximize cellular bioactivity without stressing the crop.
- Selection of high-compatibility synergistic molecules (Eugenol, Carvacrol, Trisiloxanes).
- Clean formulations that significantly reduce the synthetic load of an IPM program.
From lab bench to plantation: on-farm validation
“From concept to plantation: formulations engineered for field performance.”
We turn chemical formulations into reliable field tools for growers. Every product is tested and calibrated across commercial trials under coastal tropical weather to guarantee adherence, absorption, and uniform phytosanitary control.
- Field trials across major banana basins under high Pseudocercospora fijiensis pressure.
- Foliar rainfastness calibrated to lock onto the cuticle within 30 minutes before tropical downpours.
Precision manufacturing & dependable logistics
“Precision manufacturing and dependable logistics for a more productive plantation.”
We manufacture under strict physicochemical quality standards and controlled industrial processes. Our logistics network ensures every batch reaches your airstrip or farm warehouse right on schedule for your weekly spray cycle.
- Batch-by-batch physical stability, pH, and density quality control with full traceability.
- Heavy-duty sealed containers (1 L, 4 L Gallon, and 20 L Drum) with direct farm dispatch.

Oryx
Multi-site botanical protectant fungicide formulated for Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs, disrupting the fungal cell membrane and activating SAR defenses with zero residual chemical load.
- Eugenol (16%) inhibits ergosterol synthesis and halts conidia and ascospore germination.
- Menthol (2%) induces Systemic Acquired Resistance (SAR) and stimulates photosynthetic activity.
- Zero cross-resistance risk and 0-day pre-harvest interval for export fruit.
Kyron
Botanical protectant fungicide rich in terpenic phenols and antioxidant polyphenols. Engineered for direct rotation with Oryx inside IPM programs to preserve functional leaves through harvest.
- Carvacrol (14%) collapses the fungal membrane ionic gradient, halting germ tube elongation.
- Proanthocyanidins (0.5%) stimulate lignin biosynthesis, reinforcing the foliar cell wall.
- High operational cost-efficiency with a low per-hectare rate (0.4 L/Ha) on 7-day cycles.

04 // TECHNICAL CLARITY & PROTOCOLS
Direct answers for plantation managers and field agronomists.
Key answers on tank-mix compatibility, biochemical modes of action, application intervals, and direct farm delivery across the coastal belt.
What are the tank-mix incompatibilities for Oryx and Kyron?
- Do not mix with strongly alkaline products.
- Avoid mixing with copper-based or sulfur-based compounds.
How do Oryx and Kyron control Black Sigatoka (Pseudocercospora fijiensis) without inducing resistance?
- Oryx (Eugenol 16% + Menthol 2%): Eugenol inhibits ergosterol biosynthesis in the fungal cell membrane causing structural lysis, while Menthol activates Systemic Acquired Resistance (SAR) and supports foliar photosynthesis without physiological stress.
- Kyron (Carvacrol 14% + Proanthocyanidins 0.5%): Carvacrol disrupts fungal membrane homeostasis inhibiting mycelial growth and spore germination, while Proanthocyanidins stimulate lignin synthesis and chelate metal ions required for pathogen virulence.
What are the recommended dosages and application intervals in banana crops?
- Oryx: Apply at 0.5 L/Ha in preventive programs on 7-day intervals.
- Kyron: Apply at 0.4 L/Ha in preventive programs on 7-day intervals.
- Zenithar: Apply at 0.5 L/Ha to 1.0 L/Ha for biorational management of mites, thrips, and whiteflies.
How does Zenithar control mites, thrips, and whiteflies with zero chemical residues?
- Hydrophobic layer collapse: Immediately breaks down the protective lipid barrier of the mite or insect cuticle.
- Spiracle occlusion: Envelops the pest body, physically blocking its respiratory spiracles.
When should I use Kymix emulsifier versus Zephyr organosilicone adjuvant?
- Kymix (Emulsifiable Concentrate EC - Ethoxylated Alcohol 12%): Use whenever the spray broth includes mineral or vegetable agricultural oil. At 1% of the oil volume, its interfacial orientation creates ultra-stable oil-in-water micelles that prevent phase separation in the mixing tank and reduce aerial drift.
- Zephyr (Soluble Concentrate SL - Modified Heptamethyltrisiloxane 90%): Use as a super-spreading, penetrating, and rainfast adjuvant. It drastically lowers water surface tension to ensure complete coverage across waxy banana leaves. Dose at 0.15 to 0.50 mL/L with fungicides and insecticides, and 0.25 to 0.75 mL/L with herbicides.
