Bright Farms selected us to complete these two projects, one in Pennsylvania, the other in North Carolina. To make sure they were perfectly adapted to the needs of the crops themselves, as well as the climate conditions, custom Venlo greenhouses were designed by Richel’s experts: 9.60 m x 4.50 m and 9.60 m x 5.00 m.

For these projects, aimed at growing lettuce and young plants in hydroponic pools, the Richel Group developed custom turnkey solutions that included a host of equipment items: structure and cover made from diffused glass, double screen, grow lights, heating, cooling pad, irrigation, oxygenation, UV disinfection, electrical cabinet, automatic control system.

Coordination with the customer’s construction staff, and support provided to agronomic staff for commissioning, were key success factors for these projects.
