RNS Number : 6664W Eden Research plc 17 July 2024
17 July 2024
Eden Research Plc
("Eden" or "Company")
Appointment of Global Product and Marketing Lead
Eden Research plc (AIM: EDEN), the AIM-quoted company focused on sustainable
biopesticides and a plastic-free formulation technology for use in the global
crop protection, animal health and consumer products industries, is delighted
to announce the appointment of Daniel Mulas García as the Company's new
Global Product and Marketing Leader with immediate effect.
Daniel has extensive experience in sustainable crop protection, most recently
working as Product Manager, Biostimulants and Biocontrol for Sipcam Iberia, an
important commercial partner of Eden, for close to ten years. During his
time with Sipcam, Daniel was responsible for the launch and management of many
innovative crop protection and nutrition products, including playing a
critical role in the success of Eden's Araw® biofungicide across the region.
A key aspect of his role at Sipcam was to understand future trends in
agriculture and regulation in order to address the needs of farmers by staying
in close contact with key customers, influencers and policy makers to secure
the full potential of the products within the portfolio.
Daniel holds a Master's degree in Agronomical Engineering and a PhD in
Agronomy from the Universidad de León. He will play a significant role as
part of Eden's commercial team to help ensure that Eden's current and future
products are well-aligned with the needs of farmers in an ever-changing
regulatory and commercial environment. Daniel will also help the team to
maximise revenue growth through the pursuit of ongoing expansions of the
Company's product portfolio.
Sean Smith, Chief Executive Officer of Eden Research, commented:
"We are pleased to welcome Daniel to the Eden team after many years of working
very successfully with him and his colleagues at Sipcam Iberia. Daniel's
appointment will not only help to strengthen our product and market knowledge,
but also to expand our social media presence and use of new tools to identify
and pursue emerging opportunities associated with regulatory change in our
industry. Daniel's appointment is a further demonstration of our strong intent
to add to our team's commercial capabilities, supported by our stronger
balance sheet following last Summer's fundraise and our increasing revenue as
we continue to grow the company organically across various fronts. We look
forward to Daniel's contributions and the opportunities that lie ahead."

Notes to Editors:
Eden Research is the only UK-listed company focused on biopesticides for
sustainable agriculture. It develops and supplies innovative biopesticide
products and natural microencapsulation technologies to the global crop
protection, animal health and consumer products industries.
Eden's products are formulated with terpene active ingredients, based on
natural plant defence metabolites. To date, they have been primarily used on
high-value fruits and vegetables, improving crop yields and marketability,
with equal or better performance when compared with conventional pesticides.
Eden has three products currently on the market:
Based on plant-derived active ingredients, Mevalone® is a foliar
biofungicide which initially targets a key disease affecting grapes and other
high-value fruit and vegetable crops. It is a useful tool in crop defence
programmes and is aligned with the requirements of integrated pest management
programmes. It is approved for sale in a number of key countries whilst Eden
and its partners pursue regulatory clearance in new territories thereby
growing Eden's addressable market globally.
Cedroz™( )is a bionematicide that targets free living nematodes which are
parasitic worms that affect a wide range of high-value fruit and vegetable
crops globally. Cedroz is registered for sale on two continents and Eden's
commercial collaborator, Eastman Chemical, is pursuing registration and
commercialisation of this important new product in numerous countries
globally.
Eden's seed treatment product, Ecovelex was developed to safely tackle crop
destruction caused by birds - a major cause of losses in maize and other
crops. Ecovelex works by creating an unpleasant taste or odour that repels
birds, leaving the seeds safely intact and the birds unaffected and free to
find alternative food sources. The product is based on Eden's plant-derived
chemistry, registered in the EU, U.S. and elsewhere, and formulated using
Eden's Sustaine® microencapsulation system.
Eden's Sustaine(®)( )encapsulation technology is used to harness the
biocidal efficacy of naturally occurring chemicals produced by plants
(terpenes) and can also be used with both natural and synthetic compounds to
enhance their performance and ease-of-use. Sustaine microcapsules are
naturally-derived, plastic-free, biodegradable micro-spheres derived from
yeast. It is one of the only viable, proven and immediately registerable
solutions to the microplastics problem in formulations requiring
encapsulation.
Eden was admitted to trading on AIM on 11 May 2012 and trades under the
symbol EDEN. It was awarded the London Stock Exchange Green Economy
Mark in January 2021, which recognises London-listed companies that derive
over 50% of their total annual revenue from products and services that
contribute to the global green economy. Eden derives 100% of its total annual
revenues from sustainable products and services.
