TAMPA, FL / ACCESSWIRE / November 20, 2024 / Atlantic Power & Infrastructure Corp. (OTC PINK:AWSL) and its wholly owned subsidiary, NGAG Inc., are pleased to announce that its proprietary product, ASCOGEL has been awarded full organic status ECOCERT NPOP (National Program for Organic Production). In addition to providing access to organic markets in the U.S. and India, the ECOCERT NPOP certification emphasizes NGAG's ethical production and processing systems. Beyond contributing to the enhancement of water and soil quality, our regenerative and sustainable products also assist in increasing biodiversity and energy conservation while advancing food security.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, it is estimated that in 2020 there were nearly 800 million people in the world suffering from hunger, and global food insecurity has steadily risen since 2014. To address this issue, the U.S. Government's Global Hunger and Food Security Initiative prioritizes the scaling and adoption of innovative technologies in their 2022-2026 Global Food Security Research Strategy stating, "The successful development, transfer, and adoption of agricultural technology is a proven contributor to inclusive economic growth."

NGAG Inc. President, Martin Driscoll stated, "We are exceptionally proud of this accomplishment, and our global distributors share our enthusiasm. ASCOGEL's added protection of both the highly coveted CE mark ("Conformité Européenne" or "European Conformity") and ECOCERT NPOP certification labels serve to enhance the confidence of the product." The ECOCERT NPOP certification of ASCOGEL highlights NGAG's sustainable raw material sourcing, eco-friendly production systems, and ethical employment and fair-trade practices. This certification further enables distributors to access all markets and to support local economies. Mr. Driscoll continued, "ASCOGEL's unique formula allows farmers to increase food production using 80 percent less water and 50 to 70 percent less nutrients, which in turn lowers the cost of food production." Mr. Driscoll added, "This ECOCERT NPOP certification will open doors and help us break through the ‘red tape' that so often accompanies domestic and international public bodies and private organizations associated with new technologies."
