Vertex Agriculture stands as a true leader in the manufacture of cutting-edge, modern agricultural solutions, combining unparalleled expertise with a commitment to innovation.
The Glass Greenhouse by Vertex Agriculture is a masterpiece designed for impeccable plant cultivation. Harnessing the exceptional light transmission qualities of glass, it creates an ideal environment for plant growth. With a remarkable glass transmittance of over 85%-90%, it allows the maximum amount of sunlight to penetrate, ensuring plants thrive through effective photosynthesis. Furthermore, it expertly maintains a controlled indoor climate, forming a microclimate that operates independently of the external natural conditions. During chilly seasons, the greenhouse minimizes heat loss, offering vital insulation, while in warmer months, it utilizes advanced ventilation, shading, and other systems to regulate temperature-preventing heat-related stress on plants.
A glass greenhouse is a building facility with a specific frame structure. Frames are usually made of metal (such as steel), including columns, beams, trusses and other parts, which are combined to form a solid spatial framework to provide support for the installation of glass. The design of the frame should take into account the weight of the bearing glass and the pressure of resisting natural external forces such as snow and snow to ensure the safety and stability of the greenhouse. |
1. Glass greenhouse is mainly used for plant cultivation. It uses the good light transmission of glass to create suitable lighting conditions for plant growth. The high transmittance of glass (generally more than 85%-90%) can make most of the visible light in the sun pass through, ensuring that plants can fully carry out photosynthesis. At the same time, it can effectively maintain the indoor temperature and form a microclimate that is relatively independent of the external natural environment. In the cold season, the glass greenhouse can reduce the loss of indoor heat and play a role in insulation; In the hot season, the temperature is adjusted through supporting ventilation, shading and other facilities to avoid excessive temperature damage to plants.
2. In addition to plant cultivation, glass greenhouses can also be used for agricultural production activities such as flower planting and vegetable seedling cultivation, and in some cases, it is also used to display rare plants and hold horticultural exhibitions, such as tropical plants in some botanical gardens, flower exhibition greenhouses, etc., to provide people with places of appreciation and popular science education. |
A glasshouse is a semi-permanent or permanent building. Its construction needs to follow certain building codes and standards, and there are corresponding requirements in site selection, infrastructure construction, drainage, etc. Its appearance is usually more structured to adapt to the installation of glass and the use of internal space. And the scale of the glass greenhouse can be flexible according to actual needs, from small single-house greenhouse for home gardening, to large multi-house greenhouse for agricultural industrialization. |
Ventilation System
1. Natural Ventilation System: This system primarily utilizes side and top windows to achieve optimal airflow. Side windows are strategically placed along the greenhouse's lateral walls, offering both manual and electric operation options. At the pinnacle of the greenhouse, you'll find top windows that open using various mechanisms like rack and pinion. As temperatures rise indoors, hot air naturally ascends and escapes through the top windows, while cooler external air enters through the side windows. This process creates a natural flow of ventilation, delicately balancing indoor temperature and humidity.
2. Forced Ventilation System: In this system, powerful exhaust fans are strategically installed at one or both ends of the greenhouse. During extreme conditions, when natural ventilation isn't sufficient, such as during sweltering summer days, activating the exhaust fans effectively drives out the hot air. This ensures a continuous influx of fresh air from the outside, rapidly achieving cooling and ventilation to maintain a pleasant environment.
Sunshade System
1. External Sunshade System: An external sunshade net graces the top of the greenhouse, offering automated or manual expansion and contraction through electric control based on light intensity and indoor temperature. This net acts as a shield, effectively blocking harsh sunlight, lowering light intensity inside, and reducing incoming heat. It ensures that indoor temperatures remain optimal during scorching summer days, safeguarding plants from the damaging effects of intense light exposure.
2. Internal Sunshade System: Positioned within the greenhouse's interior, this system not only provides shading and cooling but also enhances heat retention during the night. By reflecting a portion of sunlight, it minimizes heat absorption and allows for fine-tuning of light distribution, optimizing the internal environment for plant growth.
Irrigation System
1. Drip Irrigation System: A favored choice for glass greenhouses, this system channels water through pipes to individual drippers placed near plant roots, gently delivering moisture directly into the soil. Drip irrigation precisely regulates water usage, minimizing evaporation and waste. Additionally, by dissolving fertilizers in the water, it ensures targeted nutrient delivery to roots, achieving precise and efficient fertilization.
2. Micro-Sprinkler Irrigation System: With sprinkler heads installed at the greenhouse top or above plants, this system disperses water as fine droplets, enhancing humidity for plants that thrive in moist environments. Covering broad areas, micro-sprinkler irrigation can efficiently nurture multiple plants simultaneously, fostering healthy growth.
Heating System
1. Hot Water Heating System: Utilizing boilers and associated equipment, this system circulates heated water through pipes laid across the greenhouse floor or space. It uniformly distributes heat to elevate indoor temperatures, with easy temperature management. Additionally, waste heat is repurposed for secondary uses like hot water irrigation, maximizing energy efficiency.
2. Hot Air Heating System: Equipped with hot air fans, this system swiftly introduces heated air into the greenhouse. It allows flexible adjustments of the air outlet's position and angle as needed, ensuring a balanced and efficient heat distribution throughout.
Control System
The intelligent control system stands as the heart of the glass greenhouse, autonomously monitoring and regulating crucial environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, light, and ventilation. A network of sensors, including temperature, humidity, and light sensors, collects comprehensive indoor and outdoor data. This data feeds into a central controller that, guided by preset parameters, adjusts the operation of ventilation, shading, irrigation, and heating equipment. This precise control cultivates the perfect environment for plant growth, ensuring optimal conditions are constantly maintained.
