CoolGrow® Linear - The Unique Grow Light System For Multi-Layer Plant Cultivation
"A linear LED grow light bar full of surprises" this is how you best describe the CoolGrow® Linear. Besides a market leading light efficiency, this vertical farming grow light platform is foreseen from a bunch of sophisticated features and options what makes implementation in your farm so much more practical. • LINEAR 60 - Photon Flux up to 210µmol/s per bar For medium light levels on crop <250μmol Daisy chain up to 10 bars Hight light efficacy • LINEAR 100 - Photon Flux up to 350µmol/s per bar For high light levels on crop 250-450μmol Daisy chain up to 10 bars Hight light efficacy • LINEAR PRO - Photon Flux up to 425µmol/s per bar Dynamic spectrum controls 4 channels Optimal plant steening through photo-period End-of-day treatments with Far Red With the CoolGrow® Linear everything becomes just that little more effective, which makes the difference in the end. By positioning the LED grow light bars as close as possible to the crops, all the produced light is steered towards the crop in the most effective way. Also, the generated heat, although less prominent than in other grow light technologies, will thus make a positive contribution to the stomatal opening and plant activation. The light intensity on the plant canopy can be determined by the distance to the crop, the number of light bars on the surface as well as by light output controls on the lamps themselves. This way, you can optimize the PPFD needed light level on the crop for each of the plant's growth stages. Of course the potential of the CoolGrow® Linear goes much beyond these, in case you have specific cultivation requests, let us know and our plant lighting experts will be happy to advise you.
CoolStack® PRO - The Ultimate Grow Light For Your Crops
The CoolStack®, our bestseller, can be found in the majority of our projects, either in full LED or hybrid-lit greenhouses. Directly placed under the greenhouse trellises and with an ultra-small width, we guarantee a minimum of additional shadows on the crops. What makes the CoolStack® the ideal LED grow light for your greenhouse project? 13 Different power and light outputs Our lamps guarantee the ideal match for the required light level for your crops with a minimal number of light fixtures and ideal light spreading. A good example of the benefits of this approach is our CoolStack® Boost system in strawberry greenhouses. For early or late strawberry cultivation, we have lowered the producers' investment cost per square meter by over 25% with just 2 CoolStack® Boost lamps per 8-meter trellis.

CoolGrow® VF - Indoor Grow Lighting Reinvented
The CoolGrow® VF, a groundbreaking vertical farm lamp that was created out of a collaboration between Colruyt Group and MechaTronix. Instead of a classic system of light beams that radiate the plants directly, the CoolGrow® VF works with indirect and diffused lighting. The entire growing area is equipped with a highly reflective coating, so that both the ceiling and the side walls become the plant's source of light. The light photons are thus optimally used without any loss of light. A true masterpiece of technology for indoor farming — optimized for both Capex and Opex CoolGrow® VF - up to 4387 µmol/s, Max power 1248watts Total Internal Reflection Higher light use efficiency (LUE) Diffuse Light The combination of all these technologies together gives a new perspective on the future of vertical farming and opens up completely new possibilities. Together with Colruyt Group, MechaTronix succeeded in making vertical farming commercially feasible on both levels, Capex and Opex. The technology, as well as the optics, are globally patented.
