Senmatic to develop cloud-based greenhouse control solutions

Senmatic and bio-technology start-up Consibio have entered a strategic partnership to develop and distribute cloud-based control solutions for the horticulture industry all around the world.

The energy-intensive horticulture sector has had large focus on reducing energy consumption in the past years. More and more growers invest in greener controllable greenhouse technology, including climate control, bio-mixers, and LED fixtures.

To control all these units, Senmatic and bio-technology start-up Consibio have entered a strategic partnership to develop and distribute cloud-based control solutions for the horticulture industry all around the world.

- We aim for world-class user friendliness and to make it even easier to have round the clock control of climate, watering activities, grow lights, and all the other controllable factors in your greenhouse. Having easy control promotes sustainable use of the equipment at the benefit of plant growth in the greenhouse as well as energy-consumption and our environment, says Mads Andersen, Head of R&D at Senmatic, and adds:

- We look very much forward to launch the solution to the market when it is fully developed and tested.
