The Face of Botanicals

Botanicals are an integral part of MGK’s story. No one knows that better than Dominique Ebbenga, Ph.D., an MGK fellow and passionate entomologist.

While we’ve had great success with Evergreen® Pyrethrum Concentrate, a fast-acting concentrate that is OMRI listed for organic use, Ebbenga is looking ahead. “As greener technology emerges, MGK’s long history in botanicals and softer chemistry will allow us to innovate for the future,” she said. “Working with botanicals requires a different mindset to navigate struggles that synthetics don’t have. We have the expertise and skill needed to provide more sustainable solutions.”

MGK is at the forefront of botanical innovation. Botanical ingredients can be unpredictable in nature, and our top-notch team of R&D scientists and entomologists has extensive experience working with these chemicals to get the best success, bridging the gap between synthetic and botanical formulation.

Ebbenga completed her undergraduate and graduate work at the University of Minnesota.
