Lighting
As more and more growers want to offer their products all year round, greenhouse lighting has come to play an increasingly important role in modern horticulture.
Using the right lighting in the greenhouse, optimal growth can be achieved even in the dark months. The amount of light a plant needs is different for each crop. While in tomatoes light and radiant heat both play an important role, in lettuce crops it is usually only about light and there should be no radiant heat. Thanks to years of experience, we know what each crop needs and how to achieve it.
Different types of lighting
We provide solutions with son-t lamps as well as LED lighting and hybrid systems. Our expert staff will work with you to find the best solution for optimum returns.
As a Philips Hortipartner, we not only use their quality products, but also their knowledge and innovations. This allows us to apply the latest techniques directly. Nowadays, LED lighting is used more and more and colour plays an increasingly important role. The most efficient colour spectrum is determined and used for each crop. It is possible to dim the lights in departments with younger plants, for instance, or change the colour in departments with more advanced plants.
A combination of elements
Lamps generally provide not only light, but also heat. Good coordination with the heating and air treatment system is therefore crucial. And when lamps hang at the top of the greenhouse, this means heat at the top.
Proper ventilation can bring this down. The Priva climate computer can coordinate all this. Lighting installations require proper maintenance to maintain both the desired light level and the safety of the installation. Our service department takes care of all inspections required by your insurer. The advantage here is that we can repair any discrepancies immediately.
