Every aspect of plant growth, from seed to harvested crop, is protected and great care is taken to ensure that any source of contamination is avoided. Whilst this is generally applied to every aspect of the growth cycle, water quality (arguably one of the largest inputs to the growing process) is often overlooked.

EndoSan replaces current, ineffective water treatment solutions or can be quickly and easily applied where no water quality measures exist. Its efficacy is the reason EndoSan is fast becoming the product of choice for the horticultural sector.

Biofilm problems in horticulture

Many growers treat their water supply with chemistry that is either ineffective in the water itself or is not able to remove the biofilm cause of problems. It is only in recent years that the importance of water quality and the problems relating to biofilm presence has been recognised.

Pathogens shelter in biofilm and when released into irrigation water can cause escort disease

Biofilm deposits can slough off and block pipes and irrigation nozzles

Legionella can be present which means misting or spraying water can be a health ris

Increased temperature within a glasshouse and the presence of nutrients and fertilisers can increase the rate and scale of biofilm growth
