Technology transformation for your existing facility
Fertima runs end-to-end modernization projects not only for greenfield builds, but also for greenhouses operating on legacy technology, underperforming against targets, or falling short operationally.
Our approach is to analyze existing infrastructure instead of replacing the entire structure, activate technology layers that deliver measurable improvements, and transform the greenhouse into a performance-driven system.
-
01
Current state analysis
Climate, irrigation, energy, and equipment performance are measured.
-
02
Target performance definition
Quality, yield, and consumption KPIs are clarified.
-
03
Phased commissioning
Gradual transformation is implemented without stopping the field.
-
04
Measure-and-improve loop
Results are reported and parameters are optimized.
We turn existing infrastructure into a performance-driven system
With the right engineering, measurement, and control architecture, your existing greenhouse and production areas gain modern technology, operational standards strengthen, and yield/quality stability improves.
- Current state analysis: climate, irrigation, energy, and workflows are measured.
- Target performance definition: quality, yield, waste, and consumption KPIs are set.
- Phased commissioning: transformation without stopping the field, with risk control.
- Operational standard: SOPs, recipe sets, alarm thresholds, and team training.
- First-season measure-and-improve loop: reporting and optimization.
Layers activated within modernization
Transformation priorities are determined by greenhouse structure and production model.
Climate control and automation
- Temperature-humidity measurement and microclimate zones.
- Automatic window, fan, and circulation scenarios.
- Condensation risk management, alarms, and safe modes.
- Integration compatible with Munters and Fertima controllers.
Irrigation and nutrition standardization
- Flow/pressure monitoring for line health and early warning.
- EC/pH control and recipe validation.
- Irrigation optimization with root zone/cocopeat moisture measurement.
- Nutrition loop combined into a single recipe-application-measurement flow.
Weather and external condition integration
- Improve ventilation and irrigation decisions with external weather data.
- Automatic protection scenarios for sudden weather changes.
Traceability and operations management (SeraERP)
- Logging sensor data, automation actions, and alarms.
- Reporting, performance dashboards, and seasonal comparisons.
- Auditable operating standards and team management.
Operational discipline and reportable performance
Sensor data, automation actions, and alarm history are collected in a single panel. This supports field decisions with data and measures the return on modernization.
- Auditable operations with time-stamped records.
- Performance comparisons by block/line/zone.
- Track failures and deviations to root cause.
Not just pressing a button, but sustainable operations
The main goal of modernization is not just to make the greenhouse work, but to ensure sustainable operations through standard procedures.
- Clear operations with SOPs, recipe sets, and alarm thresholds.
- Team training and field acceptance tests.
- Safe modes and action scenarios that manage risk.
The return on modernization is measured
We design the first season as a measure-and-improve loop. Targets, deviations, and improvement plans are reported.
- Season start targets: yield, quality, waste, water/energy consumption.
- Deviation analysis and parameter optimization.
- Visible performance with reporting and management dashboards.
Performance, quality, and operating standard
More stable climate, less loss, and measurable efficiency.
