Arrigoni to Present Water-Saving Screens for Agriculture in Bologna

Arrigoni plans to address water management challenges at EIMA International 2026 in Bologna. The company will present Prisma® and Robuxta® thermoreflective screens, which are designed to improve crop microclimates and reduce water loss through evaporation. Arrigoni's research showed that these screens can reduce evaporation by 40% to 75% compared to uncovered areas.

Agricultural production faces increasing pressure from droughts and heatwaves, making water management critical. Arrigoni Group Agriculture accounts for approximately 70 per cent of global freshwater withdrawals. These new technologies address the need for increased irrigated production, which is projected to rise by more than 50 per cent by 2050.
