Precision 3D Plant Lighting™️ is Key to Farm Profitability
Some urban farms are struggling to pay back their investors because they run complicated operations that take time and precision to scale. Lighting not only accounts for up to 30% of capital costs and 25-30% of operational costs to run an indoor farm, but even seemingly small changes in lighting can have a huge impact on yield, quality, cycle time and energy efficiency.
Urban food production is driving high-density grow technologies that need both horizontal AND vertical light uniformity to achieve high yields and without wasting energy. Existing 2D light fixture approaches can create extreme hot and cold spots or be costly and unoptimized for commercial farming operations.
By leveraging advances in optically engineered materials and 3D simulation tools, SpectraGrow LED systems uniformly distribute – both horizontally and vertically - the optimal quantity of photons to enable improved yields, greater consistency and operational efficiency, and less wasted energy.
