Keep in touch® System
A system designed to protect orchards naturally… organic has never been so easy!
NET 2a

Single-row system for apple, pear, apricot, plum, peach and olive trees. Protection from hail, stink bugs (BMSB), codling moths, Japanese beetles, oriental fruit moths, plum fruit moths, mediterranean fruit and olive tree flies, and bird damage.
Ideal for reducing residue.
AGRONOMIC BENEFITS
- Inhibits plant growth.
- Larger fruit.
- Protection from wind damage.
- More uniform color and fewer burns.
- Less spotting.
- Pruning time decreased.
- Mulching effect in the area below the rows.
- Supports thinning out of apples, pears, plums and apricots.
Anti-insect netting with 2 types of mesh for the Keep in touch® System
Leno weave net with 2 types of mesh.
Upper Part
The holes in the net are 2.2×2.2 mm, on direct contact with the top of plants for a width of approx 100 cm.
This band is black in color and woven with 100% HD polyethylene thread, with a diameter of 0.31. Ideal barrier to new vegetation spillover.
Central Part
Neutral white, transparent, glossy and reflective, with 2.2×4.0 mm rectangular holes, and 0.31 wire diameter.
This type of mesh prohibits insects entering, but guarantees an excellent transfer of light and air.
Final Part
The net culminates in a 10 cm selvedge, black in color, that is suitable for hooking to the ground, with a mulching function.
Net Weight
Varies from 66 to 70 gr/m2, depending on the width of the net.
Tolerance on data and sizes
+/- 4%

- Significantly reduces pre-harvest drop in the presence of strong storms and wind.
- Reduction of water consumption thanks to less leaf transpiration.
- Simplicity of application in all types of systems.
