Master the light and protect your greenhouse
Raw sunlight is your greatest asset and your biggest challenge. Our advanced coatings allow you to filter infrared heat, diffuse light for deeper penetration, and create the perfect micro-climate for year-round production.
Outdoor Crop Protection
Master the Sun, Protect Your Crop
Open-field sunlight drives growth, but it also brings heat stress and sunburn that damage crop quality and reduce yield. Our coatings reduce heat and filter intense sunlight, protecting your crop through the hottest parts of the season.
The Impact of Heat and Sun Exposure
Prolonged sun exposure and rising temperatures place constant pressure on outdoor crops. Heat stress leads to sunburn, discolouration and uneven ripening, reducing the share of your harvest that reaches premium grade. Without protection, a single heatwave can undo a season's work.
Yield Lost to Heat Stress
Sunburn and heat stress can significantly reduce orchard yield each season if left unmanaged.
Fruit Surface Temperature Rise
Unprotected fruit surfaces run hotter than the surrounding air, driving the sunburn and quality loss that follow.
More Fruit Damage Without Protection
Untreated orchards see more than double the sunburn damage compared to those with proper protection.
How It Works
Coatings for Smart Outdoor Protection
Protecting your crop outdoors starts with managing how much heat and light reach the leaf and fruit surface. Coatings form a fine reflective layer that lowers surface temperature and reduces the intensity of direct sunlight, reducing the risk of sunburn while maintaining healthy photosynthesis. This approach helps protect fruit quality and yield through the hottest parts of the season.
