Water
A modern greenhouse is highly sustainable and advanced in terms of its water usage.
In greenhouses, we constantly recycle about 20-30% of the water used for irrigation, disinfect it and then mix it with fresh water from an external source. This reduces water use but also fertilizer use – as the recycled water retains nutrients from one cycle to the next.
Drain water is recaptured and disinfected by a UV treatment. These solutions are simple to apply once installed and require very little maintenance. Reusing the drain water prevents land and water contamination, as fertilizers are not released into the ground and groundwater.
Examining and analyzing drain water content is vital in optimizing the irrigation program and nutrient composition and ensuring optimal crop development.
Water storage
Water and water storage are essential in greenhouse horticulture. Good storage of rainwater, condensation or drain water is not only important for operational management, it also contributes to sustainable horticulture.
RTF Climate Ltd. is the specialist in water storage products and anti-algae solutions. We have been supplying the best products for storing and covering irrigation water in greenhouse horticulture for many years.
The use and reuse of water requires a good storage system. RTF Climate Ltd. has various water storage products. We will be pleased to advise you about the possibilities for your company.

Fogging Systems
RTF Climate Ltd can supply and install various fogging systems. It is critical to ensure that your plants are growing in a stress free environment by providing them with proper temperature and humidity levels in the greenhouses and propagation nurseries. Bacterial growth is minimised.
A fogging system will ensure optimisation and a more precise regulation of air humidity and temperature, which makes you more capable to direct the moisture absorption by the leaves of the crops. Fogging systems are one of the most effective methods for uniform greenhouse cooling. Temperature drops to 5°C in unshaded and 7°C in shaded greenhouses can be achieved.
Our fogging system can also achieve humidity levels inside the greenhouse from 50% to 90%. Our high pressure fogging can provide almost immediate humidification, minimizing bacterial growth or damage to crops and flowers.
Disinfection
Water is a precious commodity today. In order to reduce water consumption as much as possible, it is advisable to collect and reuse your (drain) water.
This not only saves water but also valuable nutrients.
We offer a wide range of solutions to ensure that there are no harmful bacteria or diseases in your recycled water.
From large to small UV installations / Ultra-Filtration / ECA installations or heat treatment, we have a suitable solution for every budget.

Climate Automation
To create the perfect growing conditions, it is crucial that all systems can smoothly work together. An intelligent controller provides just that. It is the heart of your operation and the base of all adjustments. The more systems that are connected and the more intelligent the controller operates, the better your processes reach that optimum balance.
But as you know, the perfect growing conditions do not stop at the greenhouse climate itself. Irrigation, lights, CO2-levels and nutrients; all these aspects contribute to a perfect crop growth.
Letting you achieve the optimal crop growth is what we do at Priva. Creating a climate for growth is what drives us. We understand that the better your processes are handled, the more your crop, your greenhouse and your business can benefit. That understanding, combined with over 50 years of experience, is coming together in our automation systems. We offer a total solution, one that really link all processes and systems in your business, allowing you to accurately control your greenhouse.
An intelligent controller is nowhere without the accompanying switching materials. You are also at the right place at RTF Climate Ld for this.

Transport
Cultivation growing bench systems are practical tools for the cultivation of pot plants and young vegetable plants. Because the plants are placed in pots or trays on the cultivation tables, compact placement is achieved and space is saved. There are several available options; fixed grow tables, roller tables and roller container systems.
Internal Transport
RTF Climate Ltd is a Buitendijk & Slaman dealer. We supply and maintain a large variety of trolleys, ranging from manual trolleys to double/triple scissor and maintenance trolleys with hydraulic lifting wheels. Trolleys designed for the tomato (general) crop to the capsicum trolleys. The trolleys are custom made so they will always fit on the pipe rail system, no matter what the track distance is! Second hand trolleys are available on request.
Another form of pipe rail trolley is the spray trolley. Once again, there is a variety in trolleys as they are custom made. The height of the mast, number and type of nozzle, fully automatic trolleys, semi automatic trolleys, you name it, we have it!
Bench Systems
RTF Climate Ltd supplies, installs and maintains all sorts of bench systems. Permanent and rolling benches. All the systems are custom made to the specifications of the client. Underneath you’ll find a selection of benches, starting with the rolling bench system that uses containers. These containers can be moved to any position in the greenhouse using conveyor lines and pipe rail systems. This setup allows you to work on the plants in one area.
This sort of setup is often seen in the pot plant industry
The other type of rolling bench system allows the bench to move to the left and right. In this sort of setup you create a pathway by rolling the benches away from one and other. Just like the old library setup. Both systems have integrated irrigation systems. This type of setup is often seen in nurseries.
Other
The primary purpose of a greenhouse is to provide ideal conditions for year-round plant production regardless of location, weather and other environmental conditions.
While greenhouses are expensive because they are typically equipped with complex crop management systems, the return on investment can be high.
