For various reasons and thanks to the favourable microclimate that is created under the net, crops protected by ARRICOVER have the visual appearance of a summer crop in the field: colour, vigour, correct deportment. Crops protected by ARRICOVER don’t suffer stress.
As physical barrier in process of freezing, ARRICOVER keeps water deposited on surface of fabric instead of crops.
Furthermore, this freezing process on surface of ARRICOVER fabric improves exothermic reaction and creates heat which additionally increases temperature of plant habitat.
Detailed below is a brief summary of the advantages of the use of ARRICOVER:
- It provides protection against animals, birds and large insects. It doesn’t tear if trampled by animals;
- Optimizes the crop cycle through the improvement of the microclimate;
- Creates an environment without condensation, reducing those conditions that favour the development of fungal diseases, especially on leaf crops grown in the field or in tunnels;
- Is made of translucent thermally efficient polyethylene tape;
- The particular softness of ARRICOVER removes possible abrasive effects caused by wind on crops (also the most fragile such as lettuce);
- It does not deteriorate in contact with moist soil;
- The particular weave allows the passage of light which enables crops to have an optimal photosynthesis;
- The strength of the fabric allows for use in windy areas without risk of tearing;
- Allows the passage of water during irrigation;
- In cases of heavy rain, it reduces the impact;
- Is resistant and has a long duration;
- It is recyclable such as plastic materials.
