In the wind tunnel, the effect of successive screens on wind breaking is studied at a perpendicular angle of incidence of the wind direction, together with the influence of the angle of incidence of wind direction with the windscreen. The results of the measurements in the wind tunnel at scale model under stable and perfectly controllable conditions will be compared with the results of the measurements obtained under unstable conditions.

Green Houses

Film greenhouses for the culture of plants growing in the half-light, which eliminates the disadvantages from usual films for greenhouses for this kind of use. For the culture of mushrooms, intensive in work, we produce woven EP highly resistant, who are used for example as tablecloths of breeding on racks of production

Shading Screens:

In the research on the influence of shading screens used as shelter for plants, a comparison is made between temperature and relative humidity respectively beneath the shading screen and in the open air. In addition, the effect of light intensity will be studied.
Screens in glasshouses: a preliminary research with a lightbox was started to measure the passage of visible light and photosynthetic active rays through an agrotextile used as screen in glasshouses. In a later stage, with field experiments in glasshouses, the relevance of the measurement of UV-rays will be investigated.

The percentage of shadow varies according to the density of the threads. We currently offer 45%, 65% and approximately 85% shadow. Shading requirements vary according to the area and crop type. Available in various colors: black, white, dark green, light green, green and white, blue and white. Black is the most common color since this guarantees most shade.

Soil Covers:

The relevant parameters for an agro textile, used as soil cover, will be determined based on laboratory tests and field experiments.
The relevant parameters for soil cover fabric features:
• Woven polypropylene fabric
• Controls weed growth for agricultural settings
• Permeable (allows water to pass through)
• Colored stripes every 12" make for easy plant alignment
• Ideal for greenhouses or outdoors where weeds need to be controlled
• UV stabilized for extended life
