Where we fumigate

Wherever agricultural products are kept, stored or processed.

01

Feed mills

Bins, conveyors and bagged feed treated between runs.

02

Warehouses

Stacks of rice, grains and flour sealed under tarp and gassed.

03

Silos

Bulk grain fumigated in place, with gas readings until clear.

04

Ships and containers

Holds and container loads treated for quarantine clearance.

ISPM 15

Wood packaging, cleared for export.

Under the UN-FAO International Plant Protection Convention, wood packaging must be treated before it crosses a border. The Bureau of Plant Industry — the Philippines' National Plant Protection Organization — accredits ACJEM to do it.

How a fumigation runs

Sealed, gassed, measured, cleared.

  1. 1Survey the stock, the space and the pest
  2. 2Seal: tarp, sand snakes, taped openings
  3. 3Release the fumigant at the dose for the commodity
  4. 4Hold for the exposure time with gas monitoring
  5. 5Aerate and clear with readings
  6. 6Issue the fumigation certificate

Nobody enters a fumigated space until our readings say it is clear. Weevils and powderpost beetles and pantry moths are the usual targets.

Questions

For plants, warehouses and exporters.

Do you handle contracts for buildings, restaurants and plants?

Yes — that is most of our work: high-rises, malls, hotels, hospitals, food factories and government buildings, on monthly or quarterly service with a computer record of every visit and seminars for your staff.

Can you fumigate our export pallets?

Yes. ACJEM is accredited by the Bureau of Plant Industry to fumigate wood packaging under ISPM 15 — pallets, dunnage, crating, packing blocks, drum cases, load boards, pallet collars and skids — and stored products in warehouses, silos and ships.

A shipment waiting on its certificate?

Send the commodity, the quantity and the date. We'll tell you the fumigant, the exposure time and when it can move.
