Revaho was founded in 1937 and started with selling simple irrigation pipes. In 2012, Revaho became part of the Netafim group and since 2020, the trade name Revaho has been completely transferred to Netafim Netherlands. Nowadays, Netafim Netherlands is an importer/wholesaler and producer of a complete product portfolio containing all sort of irrigation products. Grow more with less.

Netafim, part of Orbia, is the worldwide market leader in precision irrigation solutions for a sustainable future. Netafim Netherlands is placed in the Geographic Business Unit (GBU) North Europe, along with Netafim UK and activities in e.g. Scandinavia and Central Europe. Netafim and Orbia are constantly working to achieve synergies and to share knowledge and experience to use our products in the right way.

Company goals
Netafim’s goal is to provide/deliver a total package of top-quality irrigation solutions for the agricultural sector and to ensure the solutions can be used optimally by innovation and knowledge transfer.
Netafim has an extensive part of the manufacturing of irrigation solutions into their own production, this includes PE-pipe, dripper lines, inline drippers and various accessories. In addition Netafim provides various A-brands in their total package. For example: sprinklers, filters, water meters, valves and non-return valves. In addition, Netafim provides PVC and PE fittings, hanging systems, glues etc. For these ‘less eye-catching products’ Revaho provides a high quality as well. Wherever possible improvements or enhancements are made to existing products and new innovations are added. In the irrigation sector as in many other sectors, applies; a system is as strong as its weakest link.
Netafim, as an irrigation specialist, is involved in various training and research projects in the Netherlands and abroad. In perspective of the end user, quality products and innovative solutions are not sufficient for achieving optimal efficiency. In addition, application knowledge and maintenance are important aspects. Netafim participates in projects for acquiring and sharing knowledge and provides knowledge through seminars, informative material and publications in professional journals.
Quality, innovation and knowledge: the three factors of success!
Drip irrigation
One of Netafim’s specialisms is to manufacture and deliver custom made, assembled dripping systems. To meet the high quality standards, Netafim started their own production of PE-pipe. The production location in Rucphen enables Netafim to maintain heavier standards and test procedures than usual, so produced dripping systems will remain without problems for years, under the most extreme circumstances. Netafim works with countless automatic machines for the assembly of dripping systems and thereby is the largest in the world. Justifiably, Netafim is the global market leader of drip irrigation.
