Rain Bird Recognized for Innovation at Premios Iberflora Innovación 2024

Rain Bird was honored with two awards at this year’s Iberflora Innovation Awards, held for the third consecutive year in Spain. The awards were for groundbreaking irrigation solutions and were given to Rain Bird's IQ4 and ESP-BAT-BT.

The IQ4 Platform was recognized in the Sustainability category for its advanced water management technology that helps users save both time and resources. The IQ4 is perfect for parks, schools, and property managers to remotely control and monitor irrigation systems, making water conservation easier and more sustainable.

In addition, the ESP-BAT-BT Controller won in the Garden Equipment and Decoration category. With its long battery life, wireless control, and easy setup, the ESP-BAT-BT is a reliable solution for modern garden and landscape projects without the need for AC power.

"The recognition by Premois Iberflora Innvacion celebrates Rain Bird's legacy of bringing water-efficient products that offer important solutions to our customers,” says Sean Azad, marketing manager for controllers. "Both IQ4 and ESP-BAT have enormous capability to enhance and improve efforts to maximize water, time, and finances." 

The awards will be officially presented on October 1 at the Restaurante Feria Palace. Jose Franciasco Ballester-Olmos from the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia, Emilio Marti of COITAVC, Paula Orozco of AECJ, and Agricultural Engineer Maria Borras were the judges.
