It’s under the initiative of the French Association for the Crop Protection Industry (UIPP) that A.D.I.VALOR was created in 2001.
In 2015, 360 marketers - including industrialists, manufacturers and importers - contributed to the financing the A.D.I.VALOR’s action program.
These companies thus prove their full commitment to a responsible management of their products during all their life cycles.
The A.D.I.VALOR pictogram, which is affixed to their packaging, or APE (Agriculture Plastic Environment) for plastics, is proof of this commitment and favors the buying of the products originating from partnering companies.
