In the Netherlands , the weather ’s been fluctuating wildly . And there ’s a materials shortage on the market . Despite this , the building of Ugrand ’s large chrysanthemum baby’s room is on schedule . The new 10 - hectare farm is now wholly glass - proof . The focussing has shift to equipment .
Engineering business firm , Technokas has started installing lift heating and air handling social unit . The other mental synthesis partners are working on other thing . These admit insurance coverage , electric , and water facility and the vents ' telegram mesh . The byplay area is also part complete . organ pipe can be install there as well .

“ It ’s a challenging project under at least evenly challenging status , " says Maurice Hartman , Technokas ’s managing director . " We , and all the spouse , are maintain this extensive project on track . We ’re particularly proud of that . The grower can constitute the first cuttings as early as October . "
Ugrand is a quislingism between Michel Grootscholten Chrysanten ( MG Grand BV ) and Van Uffelen Flowers . They commissioned Technokas to monitor the entire project . Technokas is also responsible for for the blueprint and delivery of not only the nursery . But , the air handing units and the heat system of rules too .
The business area being complete
challenge timesAccording to Maurice , there ’s first-class cooperation between the various partners . " That ’s vital if we require to make a project in these challenging times . For exemplar , we have been work intimately with BOAL Systems . That ’s for the roof and rampart initiation . And , for days , with Duijnisveld for the blade structure . There ’s a growing scarcity on the existence market . "

Advanced gauze glasshouse coverageBOAL Systems is providing this project ’s greenhouse covering . It contains 4 mm diffused field glass . " We put much fourth dimension , energy , and attending into preparing . That was before the building phase angle . That was so our production and delivery of the roofing and siding could be on schedule , " read Sander van der Ven of BOAL Systems .
" The nursery is equipped with a Luminex Venlo glasshouse gable and coverage system . This is a prompt - to - build nursery ceiling and sidetrack system . It let a lot of sunlight penetrate the structure . That assist the chrysanthemums ' ontogeny and quality . We accomplish this by using unassailable , narrow insurance coverage profiles . "

Specific requirements and solutionsIn developing the coverage , Technokas and BOAL Systems prefer for a broad base . It offer many modification and possibilities . These can make the glasshouse specific for polish optimisation . " We ’ve taken the project ’s large control surface area into account . That ’s at various point in the ceiling and walls , " order Sander .
" That places distinguishable demand on load , cloth selection , and fastener . Technokas , and we , view and gave additional thought to tailor - made solutions . That ’s for the grower and his craw . Examples of this are the roof and section sizes . As well as air window form , condensate drain , and dilatation burden . "
Greenhouse roof
only integrated meshing ventsHolland Gaas provided the mesh cassette for the greenhouse ’s coverage air vents . This meshwork system allows undecomposed ventilation , even with a small initiative . Holland Gaas worked closely with BOAL Systems . So , it could secure an effective , quick - to - pickle vent meshing organization . " The vents are fitted with mesh . They also set mesh on the outside of the air handling units . That maintain insects out . The growers , therefore , have to utilize few pesticide , " explicate Maurice .
Thirty - five air manipulation unitsTogether , these partners built a long , modernistic nursery for ' Het Nieuwe Telen ' . It ’s equipped with hoisting heating and 35 air handling units . " It ’s a clime system like those other chrysanthemum growers have asked us to realise , " concludes Maurice . The Ugrand chrysanthemum greenhouse is 104,000m2 . That produce it the largest one - piece greenhouse that Technokas has built .
