Innovative Kiwi Guiding System for higher yields and sustainable orchards

Our patented Kiwi Guiding System is an innovative trellising solution specifically engineered for liana crops, such as kiwi vines. Featuring a unique braided cord architecture, the system supports cane renewal at an optimized angle, achieving an ideal balance between vegetative vigor, flowering, and production performance.

This guiding system consists of a top and bottom cord interconnected by vertical liana support cords, installed on both sides of the structural branches.

Key advantages

  • Agronomical: Ensures balanced orchard vigor, uniform bud distribution, consistent and predictable yields.
  • Long-term plant health: The system directs canes into optimal fruiting positions, improves photosynthesis and sap flow, reduces excessive vigor and cane entanglement.
  • Short-term benefits: Field trials with partner growers project yield increases of over 100% the first harvest year, combined with sustainable long-term performance.
  • Simplified pruning and bending: A gain of 100h per hectare, which significantly reduces the need for seasonal labor.
  • Rapid installation: 3 to 5 hectares per day with a team of 3 to 4 operators using a motorized platform, depending on spacer configuration and fastening system.

Material Options

To meet the diverse requirements of modern agriculture, the Kiwi Guiding System is available in multiple material configurations:

  • Durable polyester (standard version)
  • Polyester with Kevlar (premium version, 5-year guarantee, suitable for permanent in-field installation)
  • Compostable materials available on request

The BRAIDED Guiding System represents a high-performance engineering solution for controlled liane growth, increased productivity, and sustainable orchard management.

Our Kiwi Guiding System is supplied on compact 15 cm spools for easy transport and handling. On-site, it expands to a width of 160–200 cm and is installed on the existing trellising system using simple spacers, ensuring optimal positioning and stability.
