More and more customers require to see changing weather translate into useable screen cloths , the the great unwashed at Phormium observation . That is why the company has been investing heavy in data collection and R&D for years , says Renko Schuil . " At the same time , we can always devolve back on the reliable and undestroyable properties of woven screen . "
Runaway energy marketOne of the challenges the horticultural sector face -and a very urgent one at that - is the energy marketplace . " The energy price increases , at rates which expert considered almost inconceivable , mercilessly give away the vulnerability of the sphere . Regardless of the geopolitical solutions relate to this and the development regarding the energy changeover , the sector can already take step in the myopic term to contribute to the solution . After all , the business pillow slip for glasshouse horticulture companies suddenly looks very different . "
Focus displacement from light to energyFor a long time , the focus of energy cover was principally on light , especially for growers of greenhouse vegetable . Understandable , according to Renko , as energy does not be much in comparative terms and visible light has a major influence on production . " However , with the current energy prices , it is very possible that the focal point will shift from brightness to energy . This is not dismissing light as insignificant , but rather take care at the relationship between light and the zip factor . "
According to Renko , Phormium has " a unparalleled offering " in the vim screen market , with its line of woven mellow - quality and sustainable screen cloth . " Durable in this context does not only mean that the fabric last longer , but also that the various prop rest at a gamey floor over a long period . One of these properties is energy savings . For instance : a woven cloth save more energy than a knitted framework and at the same metre saves that energy for a much long menstruum , but lets in 1 % or 2 % less scant . In the past tense , knitted fabrics were often take because of the luminance , but now the figuring can be very unlike . That 1 % or 2 % only use when the screen is closed , not throughout the day . In addition , the light is also diffused , which has its advantage . "
Learning more every dayIt is not just Department of Energy Leontyne Price that are get this slip , go on Renko . By putting all their effort into roll up data about the various canvases , and especially datum with a higher degree of truth , Phormium is able to say more about its sail . " Phormium has invested a muckle in value equipment and noesis in recent years . Every day we learn more about the properties of our textile , noesis that we interpret into the best crack for our client . Phormium does not only bank on its own data but above all seeks cooperation with , for example , the WUR or research institute . pull together data is one thing , knowing what is being measured and calibrating the results is at least as authoritative . "
Not just energyPhormium does not focus on free energy alone ; that would be very ad hoc , harmonize to Renko . " We have been looking at trend and development for a recollective time , and dealing with change in the market in a planned way . For exercise , various system that actively hit wet from the greenhouse are come out . The screen cloths used in combination with these systems may have completely different place than ceremonious or regular screens , for example . There is also a style in the domain of climate . Despite the weather condition during last summer , summers seem to be begin warmer with more sunshine . This , too , have in mind that customers will have unlike essential for their blind cloths . "
Responsibility as a producerCall it Flemish modesty or healthy reality , but Phormium has never made a with child hand about itself , says Renko . " The company thinks that there are already enough loud voice in the market , and we care to stay to the fact . As we determine more about our textile every day , our positions are tone . Our woven cloths are of economic value for glasshouse gardening and come with product vantage that can be translated one - to - one to our customers ' results . "
And it does not cease here , as far as Phormium is concerned . The fellowship sees it as its task and responsibleness to link the knowledge it amasses to both existent and new products in ordination to aid its customers move forwards in the futurity as well .
