Contact BioSolutions Rebrands and Launches FireHawk Bioherbicide in the U.S. - A Paradigm Shift in Weed Control

Maurice, Iowa – February 5, 2025

Contact BioSolutions, formerly known as Contact Organics, is excited to introduce FireHawk Bioherbicide, an innovative bioherbicide weed killer, to the U.S. market.

FireHawk Bioherbicide revolutionizes weed control with a proprietary formula that works in hours with lasting results. It satisfies the market demand for highly effective, fast-acting, and readily biodegradable weed management. Its unique mode of action breaks down plants’ waxy outer layers, promoting rapid dehydration while supporting soil health and mitigating weed resistance.

With unconditional regulatory approval from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and substantial funding, FireHawk is now available for purchase with a full range of high-performing FireHawk Bioherbicides.

“With the increasing demand for alternative herbicides and our expanding global presence, we decided to rebrand to better reflect our company’s vision,” said Dr. Frank Glatz, Chief Executive Officer of Contact BioSolutions. “The name Contact BioSolutions more accurately represents our commitment to providing comprehensive, environmentally friendly weed control solutions that positively impacts our environment, food chains, and public health.”
