In the protected crops sector — greenhouses, nurseries, and soilless systems — there is growing attention toward sustainable and environmentally friendly agricultural practices. More and more companies are reducing the use of pesticides and chemical disinfectants, opting instead for alternative solutions that are more respectful of the environment.
Among these, hydrogen peroxide and ozonated water are playing an increasingly important role thanks to their disinfectant effectiveness and the absence of harmful residues.
Hydrogen peroxide
Ozone water
Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is a fast-acting oxidizing agent that eliminates pathogenic microorganisms while simultaneously releasing active oxygen, which helps stimulate root system development and improve substrate quality.
Thanks to water ozonation, it is possible to obtain a highly active natural disinfectant that decomposes within a few minutes into simple oxygen, leaving no residues.
Ozonated water is ideal for sanitizing equipment and surfaces and, for this reason, in the specific nursery sector, it can be used for:
- Disinfecting containers and trays after a seedling growth cycle;
- Plant treatments in protected environments to naturally and non-phytotoxicly prevent the development of fungi such as botrytis or powdery mildew.
Our solutions for the proper application of these products:
Our range of container washers is already designed for the proper application of these new eco-friendly products in the disinfection process of containers and trays.
Similarly, our mobile irrigation booms can be used for treating young plants within greenhouses and protected environments without any substantial modifications.
Thanks to our experience in designing systems for water treatment, container cleaning, and sanitation in agriculture, Atlantic Man. offers versatile and safe systems, also ideal for the use of natural disinfectants such as hydrogen peroxide and ozonated water.
Here’s an example:
Our LV1200 high-capacity container washer, designed for the professional sanitation of containers and equipment, can be used with various solutions for plant protection treatments, enabling flexible and efficient operations in greenhouses.
