With the trend toward concentrated materials to minimize packaging and shipping costs, Rohm and Haas is introducing KATHON� CF 400 microbicide, a new concentrated, metal-free formulation for microbial control. KATHON� CF 400 is targeted toward the water treatment industry to prevent or remedy fouling in cooling towers or air washers. Its new concentrated 4% formulation means more than 60% fewer containers to ship, inventory, clean and dispose of, which will reduce costs. In addition, KATHON� CF 400 is a copper-free solution to the traditional metal-based formulations on the market today. KATHON� CF 400 received U.S. EPA registration* in February 2009.

"Being able to develop, register and offer this kind of innovation to the market fits with today's requirements for both our customers and the overall need to be more environmentally conscious," says David Sutton, Market Manager, Rohm and Haas Industrial Biocides in North America. "We made sure KATHON� CF 400 was also compatible with our customers' processes, commonly used polymers and both oxidizing and non-oxidizing biocides, making KATHON� CF 400 flexible and simple to use."

KATHON� CF 400 offers the same stability and long-lasting microbial control as Rohm and Haas's KATHON� CF 150 and KATHON� WT 1.5%, which have been trusted standards in the water treatment industry for more than 30 years.

*US EPA Registration 707-316.
