Glass Greenhouse

The heart of our tomato production beats in our 70 decares of high-tech glass greenhouses. Thanks to the tempered glass covering, our plants receive maximum daylight all year round; with automatic ventilation and geothermal heating, we keep the greenhouse climate at its ideal level at all times. This precision control means uninterrupted harvests with the same freshness and flavour.

Soilless Farming

The farming technology of the future

01

NFT (Nutrient Film Technique)

Plant roots are kept in a continuous flow over a very thin film of nutrient solution. Water and nutrients are used cyclically.

  • Ideal for leafy vegetables and herbaceous plants
  • Up to 95% reduction in water consumption
  • Cyclic use of nutrient solution
  • Compact structure, high density
02

Rockwool Culture

Rockwool blocks produced from volcanic rock provide a sterile and uniform growing medium for plant roots.

  • Widely used for tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers
  • Sterile and uniform growing medium
  • Millimetre-precise nutrient control
  • High water retention capacity
03

Perlite / Coco Substrate

Natural perlite and coconut husk substrates stand out with their light structure and good drainage properties.

  • Blends suited to different plant species
  • Reusability
  • Environmentally friendly and sustainable
  • Good drainage and aeration
