UK based SAF (super absorbent fibre) manufacturer Technical Absorbents, will be showcasing its range of SAF, nonwoven, woven fabrics, yarns and tapes, which allow users to achieve optimum nurturing and growth conditions whilst effectively reducing overall water usage at Greentech, Amsterdam from June 14-16.

The event has been designed to revolve around three crucial themes: water, energy and bio-based. Technical Absorbents, will join over 100 exhibitors at the event and will be displaying an array of innovative fibre and fabric technologies that aid efficient water management.

“SAF creates new possibilities for the development of fabrics that can be used as both temporary and long-term plant root watering systems, even in areas of low water availability. Such fabrics are designed to achieve highly controlled delivery of water and nutrients to roots, whilst significantly reducing evaporative loss and water seepage,” explains Mark Paterson, product development director.

“We have developed a portfolio of products for this market. From liner fabrics to durable fabrics that can be buried below the grounds surface, our super absorbent technology offers a solution for those looking to reduce water usage or have a need to ensure plants don't dehydrate during transportation,” added Paterson.

“Wherever there is a requirement to manage water and nutrient delivery in a controlled and environmentally safe way, we can help devise a solution. At Greentech we will have a team of development specialist's on-hand to introduce visitors to our technology and meet about specific projects if required,” concluded Paterson. (NA)
