Industry Solutions

Agriculture & Irrigation

Modern agricultural technologies and equipment manufacturing with durable plastics.

In agricultural applications the material stays outdoors for long periods. Continuous UV exposure, temperature swings and contact with agricultural chemicals fatigue the material, making UV stabilisation the most critical requirement.

Irrigation systems additionally require continuous water contact and dimensional stability under pressure. Resistance to chemicals such as fertilisers and pesticides directly determines part life.

Typical Application Parts

Irrigation fittings
Drip system parts
Valves and gear mechanisms
Greenhouse connectors
Agricultural machinery components
Storage and handling equipment
