Copyr was established in 1961 as Compagnia del Piretro; since then our core business has always been the formulation of highly effective insecticides with superior safety profile, mainly based on pyrethrum and pyrethroids.
With the increased sensitivity towards environmental protection and safety for operators and consumers, the know how acquired by Copyr in the formulation of products with active ingredients of natural origin has contributed to consolidate a position of leadership in the domestic market.
In May 2006 Copyr was aquired by Zelnova S.A. and entering the Zeltia Group.

The Sectors
Traditionally active in Pest Control and HoReCa markets with specialties for public health and household -insecticides, rodenticides, deodorants - we have over time developed a specific competence in Home&Garden, introducing products dedicated to the protection of crops and ornamental plants, home interiors and balconies from insect pests.
The traditional vocation to the use of natural active ingredients has also been crucial to widen our sphere of interest to Professional Organic Agriculture and IPM (Integrated Pest Management) with Pyrethrum based specific formulations.

Research and Development
Our profound commitment to research and development generates a constant drive towards innovation and grants our professional and amateur customers a constantly updated, in-depth technical support.
With a constant eye on the substantial regulatory changes regarding biocides and pesticides, we have recently developed a new Business to Business strategy aimed at sharing our know how with selected partners in specific market areas of common interest.

Our Mission
This is the prerequisite for our competitive challenge over the next years: to offer the EU market the same competence and quality which are amply recognised by Italian operators.
