The solution the customer was looking for
Certhon was looking for a humidification solution for its Gronos solution. Gronos is an automated cultivation system which can produce high-quality cherry tomatoes consistently throughout the year. The tomato plants don’t need any manual actions, from seed to harvesting. Grown in a fully indoor or hybrid construction with LED lights, these tomatoes can be grown anywhere in the world at any time a year with the same consistent quality.
System used for this application
AKIMist® “E” Dry Fog Humidifier
Our AKIMist®“E” spreads a Dry Fog that humidifies indoor environments without wetting. It represented the perfect solution for Certhon, who needs a perfetctly controlled environment for their tomatoes.
Results of the AKIMist® “E”
Certhon tested the AKIMist® “E” humidification system and found it to be compatible with the high standards of the Gronos growing solution.
“We are very pleased with the results of AKIMist and are looking
forward to implement this humidification solution in future projects”.
