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
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!
ValkGableVision | For those who want to go one step further
Roller gable screens, i.e. vertical screens, are used for various purposes, such as for extra energy savings, sun shading, darkening, and to limit light emission of assimilation light.
The ValkGableVision system can be integrated completely into the greenhouse structure. Combined with a horizontal system, you can create even more constant, horizontal temperature distribution in your greenhouse. In wide-roof greenhouses, this system is used as a roof roller screen, enabling you to utilise the maximum volume of the greenhouse for a constant climate.
