“The toplighting compact offers excellent efficiency and control, leading to consistent and quality production,” said Mark Reimer, research and business development manager for Great Lakes Greenhouses.
The GrowWise system integrates seamlessly with greenhouse climate controls, enhancing operational efficiency.
“Even in a power outage, the system ensures no disruption to crop cycles,” said Chris Tawil, IT manager for Great Lakes Greenhouses.
Signify’s Philips Horticulture team continues to support Great Lakes Greenhouses by addressing both lighting and general horticultural challenges, fostering a strong partnership.
“We’re proud to be part of their success,” said Ries Neuteboom, commercial leader of Philips Horticulture North America.
