April marks World Landscape Architecture Month, a time to reflect on the importance of sustainable landscaping and the important role of water conservation in our world. As we look towards creating greener, more sustainable landscapes, it's important to highlight the innovations that make this possible. In the face of drought conditions, water restrictions and renewed calls for more intelligent watering practices, Orbia's Precision Agriculture business, Netafim USA, leads the way with advanced landscape & turf irrigation solutions. Drip irrigation technology tackles the challenge of under and over-watering by irrigating where turf and plants can efficiently uptake water, establishing a thriving and lush landscape while utilizing less resources. A Netafim Drip irrigation system for lawn, garden, landscaping, and turf has both short and long-term benefits over other emission devices such as conventional irrigation rotors or sprinklers. Precision irrigation gets right to the root zone ensuring adequate watering and uptake without the risk of under or over-watering. From water savings to healthier plants, drip irrigation provides solutions for efficient and effective irrigation even in the most challenging residential and commercial landscapes. When it comes to sustainability, Netafim USA is steadfast in supporting the principles of LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) towards fostering a sustainable future through cost-efficient and energy-saving green buildings. While it's important to note that LEED does not certify individual products, the integration of products within a project plays a pivotal role in the achievement of LEED credits towards certification. Our innovative product lines including Techline® CV, Techline® RW, Techline® EZ, and our Polyethylene tubing, are aligned with LEED's MR Credit 4 category. These product lines are specifically designed to contribute towards earning valuable LEED points, by incorporating at least 20% recycled content. This includes a minimum of 5% post-consumer and 30% pre-consumer content, demonstrating our ongoing commitment to material efficiency and the use of sustainable resources. As we celebrate World Landscape Architecture Month, let's remember the importance of sustainable practices. Netafim's commitment to water conservation through innovative drip irrigation technology continues to inspire and enable sustainable landscaping solutions worldwide. Let's pave the way for a more sustainable future, one drop at a time. #WorldLandscapeArchitectureMonth #Sustainability #WaterConservation #DripIrrigation #Innovation #Netafim #Orbia
