    The AQUAMAT® patented capilarity irrigation system provides a sensible approach to the serious issue of decreasing water supply that affects numerous producers worldwide.

    This capillary irrigation-mat has been specially designed for the cultivation of plants in containers. In comparison to conventional irrigation systems where 80% of the water is quickly drained (or falls between the pots), AQUAMAT® captures the water and stores it inside the mat. It produces beneficial impacts on the natural environment as well as optimizes your overall operational performance.

     

    Benefits:

    • Reduce labor costs
    • Allows to place plants of different size and water requirement on the same Aquamat®
    • Water savings by 80% compared with overhead watering systems
    • Reduces by up to 80% fertilizer use
    • Eliminate flower and foliage disease due to overhead watering
    • Creates a stronger root system and accelerates plant growth

     

    Uses:

    On benches or on the ground for:
    • Greenhouses
    • Garden centres
    • Nurseries
    • Green roofs

     

    How does it work:

    1. Irrigation: Water is added to the mat by an irrigation system made up of micro-perforated tubes integrated into the mat. When AQUAMAT® is installed outside, both rainfall and water from irrigation is absorbed by the mat. Therefore, there is optimal utilization of water!

    With AQUAMAT®, growers can adjust water delivery rates and schedules to the different plants they grow and to the weather conditions so as to minimize over-watering.

    2. Absorption and diffusion: The reservoir mat offers exceptional retention capability and permits an efficient and uniform distribution of water throughout the AQUAMAT®. A waterproof polyethylene film prevents water and fertilizer loss. Re-wetting is driven by individual pot needs.

    3. Capillary action: Coupled to the reservoir mat is a second fabric of lesser density that enables the distribution of water inside the mat through capillary action and also prevents any evaporation. This secondary layer allows water to enter the mat, but it is only released by the pressure of the pots when they are placed on top of the AQUAMAT®. Water is then drawn up into the substrate through the pot drainage holes.
