December 2018 | Back

Active in the farming equipment sector for over 40 years, Plast Project of Francofonte (Siracusa) is specialized in the field of irrigation technologies. The Sicilian company has always been characterized by an entrepreneurial strategy devoted to productive innovation and the development of products that know how to catch and often anticipate the latest market trends. The company gives particular attention to the issue of environmental sustainability, since 50% of the energy used in the factory processes is self-produced or comes from renewable sources. It is thanks to a know-how that is so specialized and so sensitive to the green economy that the Siracusa company designed and premiered at EIMA International a new line of drip lines - Gadi Drip - available from June 2019. This is a range of applications made with high tech materials, studied by the R&D department of Plast Project to optimize the use of water resources according to the characteristics and water requirements of each crop. Precisely for this reason, on the Gadi Drip line the company of Francofonte has provided 16 and 22 mm versions with Normal, PC, PC AS, PC AS ND type drips. The drip lines by Plast Project offer a wide range of choice also with regard to the dripping speed, with solutions providing 0.8; 1.3; 1.6; 2; 2.4 and 3.8 litres per hour.
