2 Green Solutions Environmental Benefits Breaking Tradition Traditional fertilising and horticultural practices are ruining our environment. Chemical fertilisers and pesticides, even when used at the recommended application rates, are still toxic to humans and animals and many cause cancer. 80% of granular fertiliser is not absorbed by plants and much of it eventually leaches into ground waters or runs off into rivers, lakes and bays. This nutrient laden water stimulates algae growth which in turn suffocates fish and aquatic life. Most traditional lawn care products also upset the soil s natural chemistry. Overuse of chemical fertilisers destroys the living organisms in the soil and creates salt buildup that eventually hardens and sterilizes the soil. EZ-FLO fertigation tanks are an eco-friendly alternative to traditional fertilising and horticultural practices. Using EZ-FLO micro-dose technology, you can implement a superior, sustainable horticultural program that improves natural soil chemistry and eliminates salt buildup with a positive impact on the entire environment. Image courtesy of Washington State Water Consortium Eliminate Fertiliser Leaching and Runoff EZ-FLO s patented proportioning systems delivers conventional, organic and organically enhanced nutrients in tiny amounts through any type of irrigation system. By applying these nutrients in small micro-doses, every time you water, nearly all the nutrients delivered are absorbed by the plant. This superior nutrient absorption means the amount of fertiliser applied can be reduced by 70% to 90% while improving the look of the landscape. Applying fertiliser in microdoses virtually eliminates fertiliser leaching and runoff. Save Water Micro-dose feeding of organic and natural nutrients helps plants create a healthier, more dense root structure which enables them to utilise water more efficiently. Increasing the organic content in soils increases the water holding capacity and makes plants more drought tolerant. Studies have proven water savings of 20% to 50% when plants are fed in small micro-doses. Reduce Pesticide and Herbicide Use Organically based fertilisers raise the protein value in the plant which strengthens its natural defenses against insects and disease. This has been proven to help reduce the use of pesticides and herbicides by 50% or more. Reduced Carbon Footprint Studies have also shown that energy is a large component of the cost of Fertiliser. EZ-FLO s patented flow and delivery method significantly reduces your carbon footprint by reducing Fertiliser needs by 70% to 90%. When this reduction is combined with lower transportation costs, fertiliser application savings and water savings, your carbon footprint can be reduced by over 95%.

3 Technical Specifications Prior to the development of EZ-FLO s technology, fertigation equipment was complex, expensive and required larger storage tanks to handle diluted products. EZ-FLO s technology changes that by making fertigation simple, inexpensive and inconspicuous. With an EZ-FLO system you simply fill the tank with concentrated products, set the feed dial and the rest is automatic. The following time lapse photos of a clear EZ-FLO system in operation demonstrate how the technology works. EZ-FLO s patented, fluid flow technology creates separation of fertiliser and water which prevents dilution with the unique ability to consistently meter all elements of the fertiliser mix, from start to finish. Because EZ-FLO does the proportional mixing of fully concentrated products in the bottom of the tank there is no need for pre-diluted liquids as compared to other injectors. As a result an EZ-FLO system has the same delivery capacity as other injectors with tanks 2 to 10 times larger.

For example, a 400 : 1 ratio means 400 litres of water will be mixed with 1 litre of fertiliser solution. In Line connection is based on a 1 coupling. Hose and drip units converted for use in an in- line installation will have the same proportioning ratio as in- line units.

5 A Green Solutions Company Main Line - High Capacity For larger landscapes, parks, sports fields and grower applications. High Capacity systems bring the economy, simplicity and convenience of EZ-FLO fertigation to larger landscapes or when extra capacity is required. These systems utilise the same easy to use, precision metering technology as standard capacity EZ-FLO systems. High Capacity systems provide significantly greater fertiliser capacity than other injectors because EZ-FLO can use full concentrates. Higher Capacity = Lower Costs The initial installation cost of our High Capacity systems is usually a fraction of the cost of other commercial injectors due to lower equipment costs, no electrical service, no large mixing tanks or tank housing structures. Since there are no moving parts in any EZ-FLO system, there are no ongoing maintenance costs. Refilling is a breeze! With the High Capacity Funnel Fill option it takes only minutes to refill a tank with up to a hundred Kg of concentrated water soluble or liquid products. This means a 5 Hectare landscape can be serviced in as little as 10 to 15 minutes. The typical labor savings range from 80% to 90% as compared to traditional fertilising methods. The system can service larger landscapes and applications when filled more frequently. These systems fit in large, commercial valve boxes or can be direct buried under the proper circumstances.

6 Main Line - Standard Capacity Automatically feed all the plant material every time you water. For smaller commercial landscapes, residential landscapes, housing estates, display homes and nursery/grower applications. These systems normally install directly in the irrigation system main line after the back flow preventer. One system will feed both sprinkler and drip irrigation zones without requiring any adjustments. Easy to install Easy to use. The system can be installed in minutes. Any liquid or water soluble fertiliser or supplement can be delivered - no premixing required. Simply fill the system every 4 to 6 weeks and it spoon feeds your landscape every time you water. Base refill frequency on desired results.
