SOLARISATION
Ecosol
Manufactured with resins that have thermal properties to keep the ground warm for longer.
Highly transparent to allow maximum sunlight in.
Maximum use of solar energy to warm the ground.
Its composition includes anti-drip additives that reduce drop formation on the surface and allowing for maximum sunlight penetration.
100% recyclable materials.

It provides optimal thermal conductivity to warm deeper into the soil. This technique consists of using solar energy by means of films, which is environmentally-friendly and economical both inside the greenhouse and in the field. Its high transparency and condensation-proof effect achieve the highest solar radiation for the ground. |
Much more efficient than a regular clear film:
With a normal film, temperatures increase 4°C to 5°C at a depth of 15 cm. With the ECOSOL film, the ground temperature could increase by up to 7°C. This temperature difference considerably improves solarisation efficiency. This reduces the time needed for disinfection.
Tips for proper solarisation:
-
Remove any remains of previous crops from the soil, as they are a source of infections.
-
Prepare the ground properly (loosen soil) and flatten with rollers to make it easier for the sheet to be in contact with the soil.
-
Water the ground to field capacity to achieve good heat transmission.
-
Install the ECOSOL plastic, making sure to cover all areas.
-
If it has to be watered further, it must be done at night or first thing in the morning, to prevent the water from cooling the ground.
-
During work prior to planting, do not till the soil below 25-30 cm, so that the solarised soil is not mixed with infected soil beneath that level.
-
If it is done in a greenhouse, it must remain closed during the solarisation process and the cover plastic must be clean (delimed) for maximum effectiveness.
