Enza Zaden commissioned Nijssen to build four advanced plant growth rooms at their South African site. The core challenge was to evenly distribute air throughout the entire space and control the climate with high precision. Even minor deviations in temperature or humidity can affect the growth process. Furthermore, the installation had to be demonstrably reliable, even at a great distance from their home base in Leiden.

Nijssen designed and installed a fully customized cooling system, tailored to the specific requirements of the plant growth rooms. For maximum operational reliability, a redundant setup with two independent cooling circuits was chosen. Each room is equipped with two air coolers in combination with perforated side walls for even air distribution. All rooms are controlled and monitored via the Nijssen Climatemaster Control system, which provides the end-user with full insight into all relevant parameters.
