We’re Indovinya, a business division of Indorama Ventures. Indovinya is a world-class, innovative downstream chemicals company delivering high-value-added and sustainable solutions for our customers’ long-term success.
Indovinya works closely with customers and partners to develop innovative, customized solutions that meet their needs. Increasing crop yield sustainably is the main challenge for agribusiness and drives Indovinya.
Indovinya develops solutions that result in more accurate and effective applications that contribute to the growth and continuity of agribusiness.
How Indovinya works
Indovinya is aligned with society’s demands and evolves to provide solutions for the present and the future of agriculture. Its relationships with research institutes, customers, and farmers allow the company to grow and position itself as a responsive business partner with global reach.
Through a dedicated expert team across the regions where it operates, innovation platforms, and international quality standards, Indovinya develops ever-more sustainable solutions that improve crop yield.
Innovation Platforms
Innovation platforms drive the development of Crop Solutions’ technological products and services, to guarantee performance, from formulation to application of agrochemicals in the field. They also enable the development of on-demand solutions that meet the specific needs of customers who can count on the team’s in-depth knowledge, regardless of the application technology.
Thanks to a broad adjuvant portfolio, Indovinya’s Crop Solutions market encompasses tools for the formulator and solutions, ready for use in tanks. The Crop Solutions market provides an extensive range of claim support and harmonization of the most varied formulas: suspensions, concentrated suspensions, emulsions, granules, dispersions, among others. As a result, more accurate and safer applications are made possible, which in turn, increases crop yield.
Tank mix adjuvants are solutions or blends added to spray tanks to optimize the application of herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides. When added to a phytosanitary syrup, adjuvants improve the effectiveness of the active ingredient, increasing the adhesion to the leaf for example, or better operability during preparation and spraying, enhancing the solubility of the active.
Adjuvants act in the modification of the physical and chemical properties of a tank mixture with the surface tension of the syrup being the key point to reach the desired feature. The tank mix adjuvant portfolio includes: foam inhibitors, water conditioners, mix compatibilizers, spreading agents, droplet retention, drift reducers, penetration, rain resistance, pH conditioners, deposit improvers, among others.

The solutions for tank mixtures developed by Indovinya act as:
- Oil-based adjuvants;
- Nonionic surfactants (NIS);
- Adhesive spreaders;
- Reduced drift control;
- Syrup compatibilizers;
- Acidifiers and buffers.
Biological formulations are very effective in pest control due to their specificity. The development of these unique and customized solutions requires deep technical knowledge and expertise in biological formulations to achieve stability, maintain the effectiveness and bioavailability of the active ingredient after application.
The use of biopesticides together with integrated management in crop production has increased in recent years.This combination has resulted in greater sustainability and improved results in yield, due to the streamlined use of phytosanitary control technologies.
With a team of experts and a full Research and Development structure, Indovinya works closely with customers and partners to develop customized solutions according to the active ingredient and application. In addition to a biological laboratory, the company’s Research and Development Center in São Paulo, Brazil has specialized equipment such as the spray chamber, which simulates application conditions in the field.
Some of the Bio-solutions developments are as follows:
- Additives for seed treatments with biological assets;
- Formulants and adjuvants for biostimulants;
- Formulations for biopesticides developed in co-creation based on our customers’ needs.
Crop Enhancement solutions contribute to increasing crop yield by enhancing nutrients for better plant development. The formulations developed on this platform are intended to provide optimal growth conditions for the crop.
The in-depth knowledge of plant physiology provides farmers with data on the needs for the optimal development of each plant species. Not only in terms of light supply or water availability, but also in terms of specific nutrient needs throughout the cycle.
Crop Enhancement formulations improve soil and plant health by providing nutrients and other key substances for plant development, maximizing irrigation efficiency, and increasing tolerance to abiotic stress.
Crop Enhancement products are used to increase the performance of:
- Specialty liquid and solid fertilizers;
- Surfactants and soil conditioners;
- Adjuvants and irrigation additives.
The Crop Protection platform is specialized in the development of additives that maximize the performance of active ingredients in the field.
Increasing crop yield sustainably requires technology. From grain selection, soil fertilization, and planting schedule, to irrigation and pest management, the specific solutions and techniques chosen have an impact on the results.
Indovinya’s broad portfolio of products and solutions includes emulsifiers, wetting agents, dispersants, and solvents. Working together with its customers, Indovinya has developed these products to meet the challenge of providing farmers with effective, safe, and full formulations that guarantee increased crop yield and profitability.
Crop Protection developments are focused on:
- Solutions with little eye irritation and low ecotoxicity;
- Formulations with higher asset load;
- Compatibility for solutions with a double and triple mix of assets;
- Low foam.
