E.J. Woollard Ltd has been providing irrigation system to Garden centres and
growers for over 70 years. We understand that different types of watering may be
required for various applications and various horticultural crops and that this
may be the difference between a successful crop and a wasted one.
Low level Spray lines
Often used by tree growers where the trees are laid out in double rows with
stems tied to a retaining wire between the rows, as this wire can also be used
to suspend the spray line from. This system gives overall wetting of the
container surface.
Overhead spray lines
The pin jet nozzle and inverted sprays remain the most versatile and cost
effective methods yet developed. 32mm PVC tube is used as standard and is
supplied in 4.5 metre lengths with holes drilled and tapped for the nozzles to
be screwed in on site. The standard nozzle spacing is 1.5 metres however other
spacings are available.
We offer a comprehensive stock of tees elbows, bends, threaded connectors,
unions drain valves etc. the sizes range from 16mm + 3/8 inch to 110mm + 4 inch
larger sizes are usually available next day.
Drip and Ground irrigation
This type of irrigation is commonly used in glass houses - tree and shrub
nurseries – hanging basket growing. It is economical as the drippers place the
water where it is needed and if the controllable drippers are used they can be
turned of once the crop has been removed if selective cropping is carried out
this is a major benefit
Movable Spray Stands
These are widely used in Topical areas of garden centres where the displays are
continuously changing. The stands can have different spray heads attached to
suit the crop that is being watered; this is a very flexible way of irrigating.
