For over 75 years chloropicrin has benefited agriculture by controlling pathogens and soil pests. Since 1989, Trinity Manufacturing, Inc. has been producing Chloropicrin for use as a pre-plant soil fumigant in agricultural applications. This product is supplied to growers on six continents, allowing for the increased production of food on a global basis.

Application of Chloropicrin by certified professionals involves injecting the product in the soil and covering the treated area with plastic mulch. In addition to controlling diseases and pests, chloropicrin breaks down into plant nutrients for not only the crops but the helpful microorganisms that exist in the soil as well. The end result is increased yields and improved productivity of high value crops such as strawberries, tomatoes, and peppers.

Though Chloropicrin can be used alone for soils with serious soil borne disease present, it is typically blended with other products for improved herbicidal and nematocidal properties. Since one of the attributes of Chloropicrin is that it is a lachrymator (tear producer), it also serves as an excellent pre-warning indicator for potential exposure.

Our state of the art plant in Hamlet, NC uses cutting edge technology to produce Chloropicrin. We strive to be excellent product stewards, so please use the links or contact information below should you have any questions about this product or its safe handling.
