Rain-Tal

What Rain-Tal does

Rain-Tal Ltd. is a privately held Israeli manufacturer of low-volume micro-irrigation equipment and water filtration components, headquartered and produced at Kibbutz Barkai. The company was established in 2007 by Dr. Gideon Rosenberg (Ph.D. Physics) as the successor vehicle to the legacy Ein-Tal brand, which had been developed by his father Peretz Rosenberg over approximately 30 years. Rain-Tal's product portfolio spans four categories: surface irrigation products (Vibro-Spreaders, Turbo Sprinklers, Dynamic Misters, Directional Spreaders, and Long Range Rotor Sprinklers covering flow rates from roughly 20 to 300 L/hr), drip irrigation products (Micro Drip Method systems with flow rates as low as 0.2 L/hr, Multi-Outlet Drip Sets, Gravity Micro-Drip Systems operating at under 0.1 bar, and self-cleaning Buzzing Drippers), water filters built around the patented SDF (Super Disk Filter) disk technology with mesh grades from 5 to 500 microns, and industrial accessories such as Pressure Reading Sockets and connectors.

The underlying technology is anchored on three proprietary mechanisms: a vibrating pin/spreader design that prevents clogging without chemical treatment, a labyrinth-based self-forming dripper enabling 0.2 L/hr micro-drip flows, and a patented plastic disk filter with a sinuous-rib pattern that supports simple back-flush cleaning. These features differentiate Rain-Tal from conventional emitters and filters by addressing water scarcity and emitter clogging in arid and semi-arid climates. The company serves commercial agriculture (orchards, vineyards, coffee plantations, greenhouses, nurseries, field crops), home gardening (window-pot drip kits), and select industrial applications such as pressure measurement in valves and mining systems.

Rain-Tal monetizes almost exclusively through hardware sales. Approximately 75% of production is exported, and the company operates a hybrid B2B model: as an OEM/certified vendor supplying components to major irrigation equipment manufacturers (Netafim, NaanDanJain, Toro, Raphael Tyco), and through agricultural distributors and direct catalog sales for end users. The business is family-controlled, employs between 1 and 10 people, has no disclosed institutional investors, and discloses no revenue or pricing data publicly.
