ErfGoed, a well-known brand in the manufacturing of cultivation floors and water management systems, has partnered with Albers Alligator to deliver the largest water basin both companies have ever constructed at Double Diamond Farms in Canada. The basin, boasting impressive dimensions of 426 meters (1,398 ft) in length, 69 meters (226 ft) in width, and 5 meters (17 ft) in depth, offers a storage capacity of over 128 million liters of water.
Cor Bremmer, operational director at ErfGoed, commented: “As partners, we create solutions for the challenges growers face in water management. This massive basin addresses the
growing demand for reliable water storage in the horticulture sector. The scale of this project provides a sustainable solution to water scarcity, a rapidly increasing challenge within the
industry.”
Matthijs Kraaijeveld, operations manager North America at ErfGoed Canada, added: “For us, this project is a testament to what we can achieve with the right partners. With this basin, our
client, Double Diamond Farms, will have sufficient water capacity. Rainwater is also the highest quality irrigation water. It was a challenging project, but the outcome is something we are proud
of.”
