ValkScreenVision 2.0 | The most advanced screen system for Venlo greenhouses
Van der Valk Horti Systems has introduced a completely new screen insertion system: ValkScreenVision 2.0. This system makes inserting and replacing screen cloth a lot less time-consuming and less risky for both crop and fitter.
The screen cloths come pre-fitted with guide strips that are pulled directly into the profile as the cloth is inserted. This means that cloth clips will not have to be fitted and you can insert as much as 3 hectares of cloth per day!
ValkTrussRail | Standard ventilation capacity
‘Next Generation Growing’ has meanwhile become part of many a grower’s cultivation strategy. It stands for optimising production while reducing energy consumption.
The key elements of it are the following:
- Moisture control under the screen
- More frequent and longer use of screen cloths
- Better handle on CO2 thanks to less natural ventilation
