Making sunlight diffuse before entering the greenhouse has numerous scientifically proven advantages. It provides more evenly distributed light. Entering deeper in the greenhouse and reaching the lower parts of the crops. Both resulting in higher crop yields. Diffusivity also ensures more evenly distributed heat inside the greenhouse, which reduces the peak temperatures of the crops. This limits the need to ‘air’ the greenhouse by opening the roof-windows to lower the peak temperatures.

Pepper Greenhouse PAR+

Traditionally, growers close their screens to protect the crop. While this reduces stress at the top of the crop, it also blocks valuable sunlight and can disrupt the climate in the greenhouse. 
 
💡 Fortunately, with our PAR+ coating, things can be done differently. 
By diffusing the incoming daylight, PAR+ distributes the light intensity more evenly over the crop. This ensures that: 
 
✔️ Screens need to be closed later or less often 
✔️ The crop can handle a higher PARsom 
✔️ Stress is reduced, without loss of light 

 We see this reflected in practice, for example at NH Paprika. Here we monitor the PAR values at the top of the crop under our PAR+ coating vs. the department without our coating. On a sunny day, the screens in the uncoated part of the greenhouse had to be closed around 12:00 noon. In our PAR+ section, this was not necessary, allowing 20% more daylight to enter, without stress or damage to the crop. 
 
👉 The result? Healthier plants, better growth, and more efficient use of daylight.
