The municipal government of the Costa del Sol in Málaga has been a pioneer in implementing cutting-edge technologies for the care and maintenance of its parks and gardens. This project, which has spanned several years, has marked a milestone in the management of green spaces in one of the regions with the best climate in Europe.
Location: Costa del Sol, Málaga, Spain
Year: 2012 – 2018
Application: Advanced and Sustainable Gardening
The Costa del Sol faced unique challenges, such as hard water that caused blockages in irrigation systems. The goal was to find a solution that would provide precise irrigation control and effectively maintain the beauty and health of parks and gardens.
AZUD provided a revolutionary solution by combining sub-surface drip irrigation with digital management systems for irrigation.
The system of SUB-SURFACE DRIP IRRIGATION It was installed using the technology AZUD PREMIER PC AS. This dripline tubing with a built-in flat dripper has a capacity of self-compensating (PC) and anti-siphon (AS), it is perfect for sub-surface drip irrigation systems.
The Dripper AZUD PREMIER PC AS It became the key to avoiding the problems associated with hard water, ensuring a constant and efficient flow of water and nutrients to the plant roots, without the clogs commonly found in other systems.
This advanced technology was complemented by the implementation of technologies for Digital irrigation management. This integrated approach made it possible to installation of soil probes, which provide soil moisture readings and precise monitoring of various Irrigation parameters, ensuring efficient water management and plant nutrition.
The implementation of this advanced technology has yielded significant benefits, including:
This success story on the Costa del Sol clearly demonstrates AZUD’s commitment to innovation in efficient and sustainable irrigation solutions, redefining the standards for urban landscaping and natural resource management. The collaboration between the municipal government and AZUD has transformed the urban landscape into a greener, healthier environment that is better adapted to contemporary environmental challenges.
