Product overviewOpendrip drip irrigation pipe with an integrated turbulent cylindrical dripper designed for high resistance to obstruction. The emitter features a long labyrinth and wide passages to ensure uniform flow and excellent clogging resistance. Technology proven for over 25 years and developed by Gestiriego's R+D+i team to minimise blockages caused by sedimentation of particles, chemical precipitates and organic residues commonly found in ecological cropping systems.

OPENDRIP CHARACTERISTICS- Anti-obstruction: large pre-filter surface prevents solids entering the labyrinth; labyrinth passages sized so particles that pass do not cause clogging.
- Raised twin pre-filter: fed by faster central water flow to keep the filter surface clean and avoid sedimentation when the system stops; twin design ensures one filter remains elevated.
- Uniformity in flow rate: long labyrinth reduces flow variation with pressure changes, delivering a consistent flow.
- High durability: dripper integrated into the pipe for strong resistance to UV and temperature changes; manufactured in high-quality polyethylene resistant to common chemicals, fertilisers, impacts and pressures.
OPENDRIP BENEFITS- Greater labyrinth volume than average drippers in its class — prevents blockages and allows particles to pass.
- Larger filter area in its class — higher filtration, fewer blockages and improved field performance.
OPENDRIP APPLICATIONS- Mineral leaching in mining.
- Irrigation of intensive crops, tree crops and greenhouse systems.
- Organic crops and ecological systems.
- Crops such as lettuce, broccoli, artichoke.
- Gardening and landscaping applications.
