Netafim USA and Tucor have formalized a strategic alliance agreement in which Tucor will develop new web-based smart control systems for Netafim’s landscape division.
The Tucor systems will be marketed by Netafim and will include controllers with multi-function capabilities, including conventional, two-wire (decoder) and hybrid operation. The controllers will be applicable to new and retrofit installations.
“Netafim’s new controller product line will give landscape and irrigation contractors the opportunity to install a complete Netafim irrigation system from Techline tubing to filters, regulators, valves, meters and, now, state-of-the-art controllers,” said Mauricio Troche, Netafim director of sales and marketing for landscape and turf products. “This partnership between two well-established brands guarantees product reliability and new system flexibility.”
Tucor has produced a line of smart controllers since 1995. The company was among the first to introduce two-wire technology to the U.S. from Europe. It also manufactures conventional multi-wire controllers.
