Crestform Management supplies the best technical solutions against the weather and biological aggression factors such as invading insects, not to mention the fact that protective textile is lightweight and enable improved aeration.

In their simplest form, textiles have been used in agriculture for thousands of years to protect plants – as well as animals – against extreme climatic conditions. For instance, they offer shade, help to maintain soil humidity and increase soil temperature, and can also protect crops from insects and weeds.

For most end-uses, agrotextiles require suitable tensile strength and good permeability characteristics with no significant deterioration under the influence of climatic extremes. The properties of agrotextiles are dependent on the fibres from which they are produced and on the type and conditions of their manufacture.

However, advanced technical agrotextile products have become commonplace only in the past two or three decades, with fibrous materials, particularly synthetics, beginning to replace plastics in certain applications. In particular, the use of nonwovens, especially spunbond fabrics, is increasing.
