Amoéba and Koppert extend their distribution agreement for AXPERA technology and reaffirm their shared ambitions in the field of innovative biofungicides

Chassieu (France), 23 July 2026 – 6:00 pm - Amoéba (FR0011051598 - ALMIB), industrial greentech specialized in the development of natural microbiological solutions, and its partner Koppert, world leader in biological crop protection and pollination, confirm their shared ambitions regarding the commercial potential of the innovative biofungicide solution developed by Amoéba and announce a one-year extension of their distribution agreement for vineyard and vegetable crops, extending the partnership until June 2031.

Confirmation of common perspectives

The past few weeks have demonstrated Koppert's strong commitment to the successful commercial launch of products based on the Amoéba solution, with the launch of both the TIAGAN product, aimed at the vine market, and the YAZU product, aimed at the vegetable market, which were highlighted at several trade shows, including GreenTech Europe[1], held in Amsterdam in June. The first order placed by Koppert with Amoéba in early March already illustrated the acceleration of these commercial launches.

Recent discussions between the two partners have focused in particular on the implementation of the strategy in target countries, as well as on ramping up production to meet future commercial needs. Following these discussions, which confirmed the full potential of the partnership, Amoéba and Koppert have decided to extend their distribution agreement covering vineyards and vegetable crops in 18 European countries and the United States by one year, until June 2031.

Following the marketing authorisation granted in France at the end of June for the AXPERA biofungicide, the extension of the agreement confirms the favourable commercial prospects for products based on Amoéba's proven solution to address the needs of the agricultural sector and growers. The French authorisation also represents a first step towards further authorisations expected in several European countries.

Martin KOPPERT, Chief Product Officer at Koppert, said: “We are eager to bring this breakthrough solution to market as soon as possible, given the high level of demand. We are also very pleased that Amoéba has received approval to commercialize its biofungicide in France. This represents an important milestone for the partnership and an encouraging step towards broader market access in Europe. These developments reinforce our commitment to the successful introduction of TIAGAN and YAZU. By extending our agreement by one year, we are reaffirming our long-term commitment to this partnership and our shared ambition to make this innovative solution available to growers.”

Benoit VILLERS, Chairman of Amoéba, said: “We are delighted that our partner Koppert has once again placed its trust in us. They have been working alongside us for over a year to ensure the best possible commercial development of our solution across the targeted crops and countries. We look forward to providing farmers with this groundbreaking and environmentally friendly solution.”
