Building a Commercial Greenhouse

The construction process of a commercial greenhouse involves several essential steps:

1. Site Selection: Carefully choose a site that offers optimal building and growing conditions, taking into account factors such as; utility access, zoning restrictions, and weather.
2. Design and Engineering: Once the greenhouse site is selected, work closely with Gakon Netafim to create a specific plan, tailored to your project. Crop requirements and code compliance need to be considered during this phase.
3. Foundation and Structure: Greenhouse foundations usually consist of concrete and rebar. These foundations provide support for the greenhouse structure. Once the foundations are set, the steel structure is erected. The aluminum roof system is then mounted on top of the steel framework.
4. Covering Material: Install a translucent or transparent covering material, such as glass, polycarbonate, or plastic film, over the frame. This covering provides protection from the elements while allowing sunlight to penetrate.
5. Ventilation and Heating Systems: Install a ventilation and heating system to regulate temperature and humidity within the greenhouse. This may include fans, vents, and a heating system to create an optimal growing environment.
6. Water Technical Design and Irrigation: Water Storage, Filtration, and delivery are vital to ensuring you are providing the plants adequate moisture and nutrients.
7. Lighting Systems: Consider incorporating supplemental lighting to your commercial greenhouse. A properly design lighting system can contribute to increased yields and consistent year-round production.
8. Climate Control and Automation: Proper climate control and automation can lead to more efficient production.  In order to have a properly controlled climate, all technical systems need to seamlessly coordinate.  Carefully designing and selecting your controls and automation is pivotal to building a successful greenhouse.
