Initial stages of success (Our history)

As other groundbreaking companies, Queengil began its success story in the field of drip irrigation with the vision and resolve of Mr. Gideon Gilead, who founded the company in 1987. At the time of its foundation, the agricultural irrigation industry was in its earliest stages. Mr. Gilead’s vision was to provide growers with efficient and economical irrigation solutions which would also yield the growers the profits they deserved.

Our first product, the drip irrigation tape, utilizing plastic for drip irrigation tape, was first presented in 1989. Immediately upon its introduction, it was received worldwide by growers, who helped us understand that the requirements of growers were constantly changing and developing, and so we needed to be constantly aware in order to conform our products to their needs.



In 1992 we developed a new generation of drip irrigation tape – the 10 cm drip spacing tape, using novel and innovative turbocharged water low-flow technology which facilitated water pressure regulation at the drippers, ensuring uniform soil saturation even under inconsistent soil conditions or water pressure.



This new generation of drip tapes enabled the grower to stretch the hoses of multiple diameters to varying lengths, for use with various crops.



Three years later Queengil began to develop accessories in the field of irrigation: connectors and filters which supplement the line of drip irrigation products.



In 1997 Queengil launced a new full line of irrigation that included sprinklers, Venturi injectors, mini-filters, lay-flat pipe, pressure regulators, valves, etc., in total 700 diiferent items for irrigation.



In 2004 Queengil launched a separate new factory for embossed mulch film and twines.



Gilead Dotan sees himself as his father’s natural successor and shares his vision to bring growers and farmers world over the most efficient and economical products.



As part of this vision, Queengil has spared no efforts in order to invest in the development of new products and to upgrade existing ones. Today Queengil is considered one of the leading companies in its field.



Growers can rest assured that Queengil is capable of providing immediate solutions to their every need.



Our production plant has grown and expanded fifteen-fold from its date of establishment until 2004.

Prompt response to our customers’ needs is of paramount importance.

Queengil has established an international model which includes distribution and service channels which growers everywhere have learned to rely on: the prompt and superior service we provide and the highly developed products that reach them at maximum speed. As a result, we facilitate efficiency and cost-effectiveness for our customers.

The company is careful to preserve the vision and values of the company founder: commitment to its customers, suppliers and others with whom it has dealings, and to regard them as partners helping Queengil to become the ultimate choice for farmers and growers in the field of drip irrigation/irrigation technology and agricultural plastic products.
