LES SERRES BERTRAND EMBRACES THE DYNAMIC LED REVOLUTION WITH SOLLUM TECHNOLOGIES

Sollum Technologies, the company that pioneered a fully dynamic LED grow light solution, is pleased to announce that Les Serres Bertrand, a leader in the greenhouse industry, has chosen to install Sollum®’s dynamic LED lighting solution for its tomato greenhouse located in Lanoraie, Québec, which they acquired in 2017. This investment is the company’s first foray into LED technology.

 

Les Serres Bertrand is a dedicated family-operated business, with a facility in Mirabel as well as Lanoraie. It is well known for its commitment to local quality produce and innovative agricultural practices. With a storied history of growing the distinctive pink tomato, traditionally favoured by Québec consumers, they produce 12 additional tomato varieties and products that are distributed in major grocery chains throughout the province.

 

"In our continuous quest for innovation and excellence, we see the adoption of Sollum’s LED grow light technology as a natural progression", says Stéphane Bertrand, owner of Les Serres Bertrand. “This isn't merely about integrating LEDs; it's about shaping the future of agriculture in Québec and delivering unparalleled quality to consumers who, more and more, favour local produce."

 

"We're excited that Les Serres Bertrand, a beacon of excellence in the greenhouse industry, has chosen our dynamic LED grow light solution to elevate their tomato cultivation”, says Kassim Tremblay, vice president of Business Development for Sollum Technologies. “It’s a testament to the transformative potential of our technology and its synergy with sustainable farming. Our team of technicians, agronomists and horticultural specialists look forward to supporting Les Serres Bertrand’s transition to Sollum’s LED grow light solution from planning to harvest, to ensure that their objectives are fully met."

How to overcome GNSS limitations with RTK correction services

How to overcome GNSS limitations with RTK correction services

Although GNSS offers ubiquitous coverage worldwide, its accuracy can be hindered in some situations - signals can be attenuated by heavy vegetation, for example, or obstructed by tall buildings in dense urban canyons. This results in signals being received indirectly or via the multipath effect, leading to inaccuracy, or even blocked entirely. Unimpeded GNSS positioning in all real world scenarios is therefore unrealistic - creating a need for supporting technologies, such as real time kinematic (RTK) positioning and dead reckoning, to enable centimeter-accuracy for newer mass-market IoT devices.
