Efficiency, Quality, Progress and Service ­ into the future with Rain Bird irrigation systems

Mr. Branko Rajko, Department for Sports Facilities Management, RovinjWhen we decided for the complete renovation of the artificial turf training field at the city stadium Kantrida, we had no doubt that we needed a reliable irrigation system to improve the players comfort and for easier maintenance of the playing surface. Our main concern was to minimize water consumption, as we still have no alternative to using the public water system.

Steve Braddock, Head Groundsman, Arsenal Training Centre, London A tool like the Rain Bird control system is as valuable to me as the players are to a club. The best equipment offers the best conditions for the best players.

S. J. Westphal, company S. J. Westphal Bewässerungsanlagen, GermanySince Rain Bird Germany was established about 20 years ago we have found a competent partner for all our issues. Especially during the process of bidding for big stadia in Germany, we found their cooperation exemplary. We were also able to collaborate on the further development of the 8005 rotor for the improvement of the systems.

Antonin Kriz, Facility Technical Director, Stadium Letna, Club Sparta Praha SPARTA PRAHA has been relying on the quality of Rain Bird products for many years, not only in the Letna stadium but also on the eight football fields of the practice facility. Thanks to the outstanding performance of the Rain Bird 8005 rotors we are able to keep longterm quality of all turf areas at the highest level and provide excellent playing conditions for all players.

Heinz Naegeli, company ImmerGrün, SwitzerlandI like Rain Bird, because I get a complete and fully developed system from one manufacturer. When I have prestige projects the direct contact in the design and technical department is especially helpful. And the service that Rain Bird offers the installers as well as the end users is unbeatable.

Uwe Heinrich, Firma Heinrich Beregnungstechnik, GermanyFor more than 15 years Rain Bird has successfully cooperated with our company. This great working relationship pays off especially when installing large irrigation systems with a control system. Rain Bird provides permanent support before, during and after the installation.
