Many growers are engaged daily in monitoring and improving their irrigation water, often focusing on combating algae, bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Failing to address these issues can cause significant damage to crops, resulting in revenue loss.
Ultramins assists in effectively combating algae, pathogens, and viruses through the use of USAF™ ultrasonic cavitation transmitters. "Our transmitters have led to a significant improvement in irrigation water for many growers worldwide and are the sustainable alternative to other less effective methods," states Robert de Hoo of Ultramins
Approach to biofilm
The USAF transmitter goes even further by also tackling biofilm. "In basins and silos, the buildup on walls will be broken down. As cleaner water enters the pipes, they too become cleaner. In short, the cleaner the water chain, the greater the ease and the lesser the concern," explains Robert.
Every grower knows that biofilm is difficult to tackle and often requires frequent, labor-intensive cleaning. "Unfortunately, the biofilm will inevitably return if it is not adequately addressed. This poses a danger, as biofilm remains a breeding ground for various pathogens, such as Fusarium and Pythium."
Ultramins hears from the market that more and more gardeners are experiencing problems with biofilm and detaching parts of it. "We help by using the transmitters to solve this problem for growers. The ultrasonic cavitation technology destroys all microorganisms and breaks down biofilm," says Robert.

Clean pipes
Guaranteed clean basins and silos without further attention, maintenance-free, sustainable, and energy-efficient. Too good to be true? Not according to Robert and his team, nor to growers who share their experiences, like Frank Dekker.
"The inside of the pipe was so clean, I just had to send a photo," Frank shared during his crop rotation when he got a look inside a broken water pipe. The combination of hydrogen peroxide with ultrasound meant that the grower no longer had problems with biofilm. "We replace the drip lines during crop rotations, but not other pipes. Now, when a piece of a pipe that had been there for twenty years broke, you could really see that it works."
