class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Green Simplicity realized a complete vertical farm  1,029 m2 of growing surface with a fully automatic multi-layer cultivation setup in the new facility in Lochristi (Belgium). The system has four layers; each layer consists of two container lanes, separated by a walkway for inspection. The entire setup is adapted to the trellis size of 9.6 metres in order to make maximum use of the space. The system was delivered turnkey, including internal transport, climate control, LED lighting, irrigation and automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong><strong><strong><strong>Multiple microclimates in one cultivation system<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Two layers of the cultivation setup are set up for the production of microgreens and equipped with ebb-flow irrigation. The other two layers are used for hardening and rooting the tissue culture material. These layers are equipped with spraybooms. This makes it possible to realize multiple microclimates within one cultivation system, tailored to the plant level. The integrated AHU (air handling unit) regulates the air displacement, dehumidification and temperature with cooling technology. The air speed and the blowing pattern are also adjusted to the needs of the crop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"is-style-default wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong><strong><strong><strong>Efficient production and fully integrated cultivation system<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default eplus-wrapper\">With this vertical farm, Vervit has a complete and integrated cultivation system for the controlled production of microgreens and tissue culture plants. The different layers and irrigation systems make it possible to respond to the specific needs of the crop per layer while only one LBK is used. Thanks to the integration of climate, LED lighting, irrigation and software, production is very efficient. The collaboration within GreenV, including that between Green Simplicity and HT Verboom, has ensured a well-coordinated solution within this vertical farm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"is-style-default wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\"><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>Also looking for a fully integrated system for your vertical farm?<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default eplus-wrapper\">Are you also looking for a vertical farm or a cultivation system in which technology and plants work together optimally?
