How reverse engineering works

Simply put, reverse engineering is the process of taking something apart to understand how it was made and rebuild or replicate it. For Life Scientific, that means using the most advanced technology and techniques to identify not just the active ingredient in off-patent crop protection products, but every component and ratio in the formulation that drives peformance. This means we can make it again molecule for molecule. Identical formulas. Identical results.

What about patents?

Patents were created to protect the time and investment companies put into research by giving them exclusive rights for a while. But, when that time’s up, it opens the door for progress. That’s when scientists like us can step in, build on proven ideas, and keep moving things forward. That’s exactly what we do. We take discoveries that work and make them accessible for smarter farming and higher returns. Plus, we do it better. Like when we combined Prothioconazole and Metconazole into one simple application for stronger protection against wheat ear diseases and fewer passes across your fields.

The bottom line

The bottom line

Because our products are rebuilt exactly, regulators already recognise them as equivalent. So you get faster approvals, proven performance, and no hidden surprises. This approach cuts out the big-brand R&D markup while keeping strict safety and efficacy standards in place. Essentially, reverse engineering gives you reliable, innovative crop protection without compromise. Today, our range is built on trusted chemistry. But we’re also building our own biocontrol solutions to keep crops safe and farming moving ahead.
