Presentation of Palaplast products in Olynthos, Halkidiki.
Palaplast, on Thursday 01 December 2022 conducted a presentation of its products in the area of Olynthos, Halkidiki.
The main objective was to make a presentation to local farmers – but not only – of the new production activity of Palaplast’s PVC pipes and a creative discussion about the problems faced in the agricultural crops of the wider region of Halkidiki, as well as to propose solutions that will contribute to both the improvement of crops and the saving of water.
Halkidiki is one of the main agricultural regions of Northern Greece with the main crop being the edible olive (Halkidiki, Kalamon etc.) followed by olive trees for olive oil, apricot etc., so the installation and use of integrated drip irrigation systems is considered essential.
However, a major problem of the area and especially of the coastal parts is the quality of water (brackish water), resulting in accelerated malfunctioning of the irrigation networks. During the presentation there was a fruitful discussion with the Palaplast team about the problems the locals face in the area, the need to use filters according to the irrigation system of the crop while also integrated filtration solutions were proposed.
In addition, Palaplast’s widely used in the region microsprinkler “Pal Stable Sprayer” with the new improved design was presented as well as the large caliber u-PVC ball valves (threaded and solvent gluing).
