WPS has reached an agreement with an U.S. multinational biotech company to provide several modular climate chambers. In these multilayered modular chambers, over a million plants can be grown and researched efficiently.
The climate chambers being supplied to incorporate advance- logistics-automation and provide customized growth areas. Each plant can be accessed individually by means of the logistics and the climate can be controlled separately in each chamber. The modular design of the climate chambers makes the system easily expandable.
The climate chambers are customized to fit the company’s research needs. All the technologies together is what makes these chambers unique. These chambers will increase both the quality of research and the speed of product development. The chambers have no natural daylight and are used for large-scale plant research. There are therefore no external factors influencing the research results, making research much more reliable. All the chambers are equipped with fully controlled climate controls and LED lighting.
WPS, along with Certhon, provides this turnkey solution, which includes design, engineering, project management, installation, commissioning and on-site training for users of the climate chambers. The installation has started already.
WPS sees many opportunities in the market for climate chambers in research applications as well as in the production of various crops.
