Lighting System
It's not just about the light, it's about getting the right light.
The type of fixture (metal halide or high pressure sodium), the wattage, the reflector, the ballast; which one is right for you?
SHG would like to share with you our alliance with supplemental lighting specialists; the authorities dedicated to advising and ultimately providing a customized system that delivers the proper lighting required. Each lighting design and layout is custom designed for each client, each range, and each crop.
Light systems in greenhouses, particularly LED technology, maximize plant productivity, yield, and quality by providing consistent, optimized, and customizable lighting. They enable year-round cultivation regardless of weather, allowing growers to manipulate spectra for specific growth stages, reduce energy consumption, and manage operational costs.
Key Benefits of Greenhouse Lighting Systems:
- Enhanced Growth & Yield: Optimized light spectra and intensity increase photosynthesis rates, resulting in faster growth, higher yields, and improved crop quality.
- Year-Round Production: Supplemental lighting ensures consistent light levels during winter or cloudy days, allowing for continuous, year-round production.
- Spectrum Control (Tailored Growth): Different wavelengths (blue for foliage, red for flowering) can be adjusted to influence plant development, such as inducing flowering or reducing stretching.
- Energy Efficiency & Cost Savings: Modern LED lights are highly energy-efficient, often reducing energy consumption by roughly 30% compared to traditional lighting, which lowers operational costs.
- Improved Plant Quality: Tailored light can enhance the nutritional value, taste, aroma, and pest/disease resistance of crops.
- Environmental Control: Lighting systems allow precise control over photoperiods (day length) and intensity, reducing reliance on inconsistent natural sunlight
