Description
Carbendazim (CAS 10605-21-7, EC 234-232-0) is a benzimidazole fungicide commonly known under trade names including Bavistin, Bavistin, BCM, BMC, and Carbate. It carries no assigned E-code and is classified under HS code 29339900.
In agriculture, carbendazim disrupts fungal cell division by inhibiting tubulin polymerization, controlling a broad spectrum of fungal pathogens in cereals, fruits, and vegetables. In textile and leather processing, it functions as a preservative in coatings and finishing baths, preventing microbial degradation of treated materials during storage and end use.
Carbendazim is supplied as a dry concentrate powder suitable for aqueous dispersion. It is subject to REACH registration requirements within the EU, and procurement teams should verify current authorization status, as regulatory restrictions apply in certain end-use categories. Packaging formats vary by volume; contact our team for available grades and documentation.
