Turnkey Greenhouse and Hydroponic System Suppliers.

Greenhouse and tunnels suppliers south Africa

The relatively closed environment of a greenhouse has its own unique management requirements, compared with outdoor production. Most greenhouses use sprinklers or drip lines. Significant inputs of heat and light may be required, particularly with winter production of warm-weather vegetables.

This is the international standard in greenhouse horticulture. Multispan greenhouses offer the grower a myriad of configurations and specifications, making them totally adaptable to local conditions, a variety of crops and grower needs. We offer multispan greenhouses designed and manufactured by Richel, France, who are the largest exporter of polyethylene clad greenhouses in the world.

Richel delivers 350 hectares of greenhouses a year, over 500 projects, to more than 80 countries. Greener Solutions are the local agents for Richel in the SADC region. We offer a wide range of multispan greenhouses with different bay widths, gutter heights and many other variations.

Richel innovations and quality are world-renowned and they are the true leaders in the greenhouse industry, with over 600 hectares delivered in Africa to date. In addition to plastic-clad greenhouses, Richel also delivers glass greenhouses, semi-closed greenhouse technology, multi-tunnels for low tech horticulture and more.

Models include bay widths of 6.4m, 8.0m, 9.6m, 12.8m and 16.0m. The use of high tensile steel, 2.4 times stronger than standard greenhouse steel, has given Richel the edge over other manufacturers, allowing taller and wider structures without having to use light-diminishing trellis beams. The result is the brightest greenhouse on the market today.

Hydroponic system suppliers south Africa

The range of hydroponic systems on the market today is staggering. Selecting the best and most appropriate system for specific crops and climate situations can be fraught with danger. Greener Solutions has a select range of proven hydroponic systems, suited for local conditions.

We offer drip systems for growing media, both with recirculation and without. This is the most popular system around the world. Greener Solutions offers full irrigation design and supply from water storage, fertigation, reticulation and delivery throughout the greenhouse. This includes drain water recapture, disinfection and re-blending back into the system for maximum efficiency.

In addition to standard systems, we also have our own system, developed locally for local conditions, which has proven to be highly successful over many years. It is especially suited to leafy, fast growing crops and is far more robust than traditional systems for lettuce, herbs and similar crops.

Greener Solutions are also local agents for NGS. This Spanish-designed system is a full recirculation and media-free system consisting of multi-layer troughs, ideal for warmer climates. It is a high tech system for sophisticated growers and in the right hands is extremely productive, comparing with the best hydroponic systems ever designed.

Whether it is a gravel bed system, a drip system or even an aquaponic system you desire, Greener Solutions can deliver it.

CROPS

Hydroponic systems are very versatile. The ability to grow various crops using either the same system, or a variation thereof is one of the advantages of this type of food production. Greener Solutions provides technology for a large number of different crops below. For more information on the technology, visit our SOLUTIONS section

Cut Flowers

Multispan greenhouses and hydroponic systems have long been a mainstay for the cut-flower industry. Roses, Gerbera and many other flowers grow best in greenhouses with climate control, for protection from the elements as well as year-round production.

Blueberries

The international demand for blueberry production continues to grow and Southern African producers are well positioned to continue to develop and exploit this market.

Strawberries

Strawberries are one of the most luxurious and sought-after berries around the world. A number of different hydroponic systems have been developed for this crop.

Celery & Spinach

Also classified under the leafy green category, celery, spinach (swiss chard) and similar crops like leeks and spring onions do very well in our own hydroponic system, as well as our imported systems.

Lettuce and Herbs

Lettuce and Herbs, indeed all leafy green vegetables, are very well suited to production in hydroponic systems. In fact, in our systems, they are, surprisingly, often more profitable than the traditional vine crops, both in greenhouses and outdoors.

Medicinal Cannabis

A new crop in the greenhouse environment, cannabis cultivation for medicinal extraction is set for huge investment in the future. It is however, a highly technical crop to grow with very specific climatic requirements.

Cucumbers

The modern approach to cucumber production in greenhouses is high wire trellising, though many producers still follow the older traditional low wire system.

Peppers

Growing sweet peppers or similar crops is a specialist field in greenhouses. At Greener Solutions we have specialised expertise in-house on the intensive production of high quality peppers in hydroponic greenhouses, developed over years of personal experience.

Tomatoes

Vine crops like tomatoes require systems that allow for trellising in the greenhouse. To ensure long-season production of indeterminate varieties, greenhouses need to include crop supports...
