Farmers
We empower farmers to farm our future, a future that belongs to every one of us on this planet. Our commitment is to bring adapted portfolios of strategic crops to core and new markets, compliant with market needs and local legislation, but with a good balance of differentiation and formulation quality. It is strategically important to us that we leverage the customer experience to the maximum, backed by all our good work in the supply, industrial, marketing and regulatory fields. Our goal is for our products to provide the best experience possible.

Food Consumers
Agriculture is part of every citizen's life. We need to eat at least twice a day, preferably a well-balanced diet. Today we recognise that a diet rich in vegetables and fruits has an impact on our quality of life. That’s why it is so important to guarantee fruit and vegetable production at an affordable price, with consumer safety at the forefront as well. Pests, weeds and diseases are responsible for 40% of food loss in Europe, so consumer security and safety depend on the quantity and quality of production, and all of these depend on plant protection registration systems and the correct use of products by farmers. At ASCENZA, we satisfy every requirement, complying with the most demanding registration systems while training and giving advice to farmers.

Quality
The quality of ASCENZA's products and services goes beyond the satisfaction of our customers. We take responsibility for reinventing ourselves, improving our processes and products and meeting the expectations of market players in a sustainable way. Our quality is attested by the recognition of our clients, competent authorities, the market and by the certifications and accreditations we have received over the years.

At ASCENZA the safety of our employees and of all those who form part of our company is fundamental. We therefore ensure that workplaces comply with all safety, welfare and health standards, encouraging the removal of hazards and the minimisation of risks to the safety and health of those who work with us. We extend our care to the environment and combine efforts to reduce the impact of our activity. In a joint effort between employees and business partners, we promote not only participation, but also the identification and implementation of best environmental and safety practices.
