REGA Tech is Mexico’s dedicated testing and marketing operation for the AgriWater RainBox technology — deploying proven irrigation water treatment solutions across the country’s most productive agricultural regions.

REGA Global holds a 40% equity interest in REGA Tech. The company operates under the name Rega Soil Tech in Mexico and can be reached directly at rega.tech.

Who We Are

A Technology Partner for
Mexican Farmers

REGA Tech was established to bring the AgriWater RainBox technology to Mexico’s agricultural sector — a sector that faces significant and growing challenges around water quality, soil health, and irrigation system performance. Mexico’s most productive growing regions sit on groundwater that frequently carries high concentrations of iron, manganese, calcium, chlorides, and biological contaminants. These affect not only crop yields but the longevity and efficiency of the irrigation infrastructure itself.

The company’s mandate is straightforward: test the RainBox technology rigorously in Mexican field conditions across a wide range of crops and growing environments, and make it available to farmers who need it. REGA Tech works directly with large commercial agricultural operations and mid-sized growers, providing installation support, field monitoring, and ongoing technical service.

The company serves clients across three primary sectors: agriculture, where the RainBox is deployed on row crops and plantation crops; industrial water applications; and livestock operations, where water quality directly affects animal health and productivity. The technology has also been deployed on sports turf and grounds maintenance operations.

REGA Tech’s principal market is the Guanajuato and Colima regions of Mexico — two of the country’s most commercially significant agricultural zones, producing for both domestic consumption and export markets. Its clients include some of Mexico’s largest commercial growers of lettuce and tomatoes for domestic supply, as well as a wide range of large-to-mid-sized farm operations growing for both domestic and international markets.

Our Mission

To become an essential partner for Mexican farmers — improving crop productivity, reducing input costs, and extending the life of irrigation infrastructure through advanced water treatment technology, while contributing to sustainable agriculture at a national scale.

The Technology

The RainBox —
AgriWater AW-AOP in Mexico

The same Advanced Oxidation Process technology deployed on 300+ farms across 10 countries — tested and proven for Mexico’s specific water conditions and growing environments.

The AgriWater RainBox is the Mexican commercial deployment of the AgriWater AW-AOP platform. It installs inline on existing irrigation infrastructure and operates automatically in line with the distribution pump — treating every litre of water that passes through the system without any intervention from the operator.

In Mexico’s agricultural context, the RainBox addresses a set of water quality challenges that are particularly acute: groundwater iron and manganese that block drippers and nozzles; chloride and salt concentrations that compact soil and restrict root development; biological contamination that affects both crop health and food safety compliance; and the general inefficiency of irrigation systems whose distribution networks have been progressively degraded by scale, biofilm, and sediment accumulation.

The technology oxidises iron and manganese to a nanoscopic particle form that passes safely through the system rather than accumulating as deposits. It suppresses biological pathogens without sterilising the water or harming beneficial soil biology. It improves water aeration, which directly benefits soil infiltration and root function. And it keeps the entire distribution network — pipes, filters, drippers, nozzles — free of the blockages that reduce coverage uniformity and force premature replacement.

Cleans Your Irrigation System

Removes biofilm, scale, and deposits from filters, pipes, drippers, and nozzles — restoring distribution uniformity and extending the working life of your infrastructure.

Improves Soil Health

Aerated, treated water penetrates more deeply and activates soil biology more effectively, improving root development and reducing soil compaction over successive seasons.

Treats Iron, Manganese & Chlorides

Common groundwater contaminants in Guanajuato and Colima are oxidised to nanoscopic form and pass safely through the system, eliminating their damaging effects.

No Sterilisation, No Harm to Crops

Pathogens are suppressed without killing the beneficial biological activity in soil that drives nutrient cycling and plant health. Safe for all crops, livestock, and operators.

Fully Automatic Operation

The RainBox operates automatically in line with the irrigation pump. No operator intervention is required. Daily pre-start checks take under 30 minutes.

Crops & Sectors

What We Grow

The RainBox performs across every irrigation-dependent crop type — from high-value protected horticulture to open-field row crops and large-scale plantation agriculture.

🥬
Leafy Vegetables

Lettuce, spinach, herbs, and other high-value leafy crops where irrigation water quality directly affects food safety compliance and shelf life.

🍅
Tomatoes

Open field and protected tomato production for domestic and export markets, where consistent water quality underpins fruit uniformity and disease resistance.

🍌
Bananas

Plantation banana production where chronic dripper blockage from iron-rich groundwater reduces coverage, stresses root systems, and cuts yields season after season.

🥑
Avocados

Mexico’s most valuable export crop. Avocado orchards depend heavily on consistent, clean irrigation water to maintain fruit size, skin quality, and oil content.

🌽
Row Crops

Maize, sorghum, beans, and other field crops grown at commercial scale, where improved soil infiltration and reduced compaction deliver measurable yield gains per hectare.

🐄
Livestock

Clean drinking water improves animal health, reduces disease incidence, and lowers veterinary costs across cattle, poultry, and swine operations.

🏭
Industrial

Process water treatment for food and beverage production, industrial cooling systems, and other applications where water quality affects output quality and equipment life.

Sports & Turf

Irrigation water treatment for sports fields, golf courses, and grounds management operations where water quality affects turf health, colour, and playing surface consistency.

Where We Operate

Guanajuato & Colima —
Mexico’s Productive Heartland

REGA Tech’s principal operating territory covers the Guanajuato and Colima regions — two of Mexico’s most agriculturally significant states. Guanajuato is one of Mexico’s most productive food-growing regions, generating a substantial share of the country’s lettuce, tomato, broccoli, and strawberry output for both domestic consumption and United States export markets. Colima, on the Pacific coast, is a major banana and coconut producer with a growing avocado sector.

Both regions draw heavily on groundwater for irrigation — water that frequently carries elevated iron, manganese, and calcium levels that challenge irrigation system performance and soil health. The RainBox technology is specifically well-suited to these conditions, addressing the most common and economically costly water quality problems experienced by growers in both states.

REGA Tech’s client base includes some of Mexico’s most significant commercial agricultural operations. Among them are major producers of lettuce and tomatoes for domestic consumption — operations managing thousands of hectares under controlled and open-field conditions. The broader client portfolio spans large to mid-sized farm enterprises across a wide range of commodity and specialty crops.

Guanajuato

One of Mexico’s most economically productive agricultural states, Guanajuato grows a significant share of Mexico’s vegetable output for domestic supply and United States export. Key crops include lettuce, tomato, broccoli, and strawberries, grown under both open-field and protected horticulture conditions. Groundwater iron and chloride levels are a persistent challenge for irrigation system performance across the region.

Colima

Mexico’s Pacific coast state of Colima is a major plantation crop producer, with bananas, coconuts, and avocados as the primary commercial crops. The warm, humid coastal climate makes irrigation water management critical — and the RainBox’s ability to treat the high iron concentrations common in coastal groundwater makes it particularly valuable here.

What remains very remarkable is the improvement in growth. The plants grow faster and more vigorously than previously due to improved root systems. In addition, not nearly as many plants perished as in the past.
