ClearVue secures $80,000 first sale of new greenhouse technology
ClearVue Technologies has chalked up another run on the board by securing its first commercial agri-tech sale to install its greenhouse ground-source heat-exchange technology. The deal is worth $80,000. The sale was achieved through ClearVue's wholly owned Israeli subsidiary Opticrop, which ClearVue formed last year to acquire the intellectual property and assets of ROOTS Sustainable Agricultural Technologies. ROOTS was an Israeli-based protected-cropping agriculture technology supplier formerly listed on the ASX. Its award-winning assets include Root Zone Temperature Optimization and Irrigation by Condensation technologies, which the company developed to enhance plant growth and productivity. The technology also optimises water use, using stand-alone irrigation systems that extract water from humidity. 'This first sale for OptiCrop is a significant milestone for our ag-tech division and demonstrates early commercial traction in the protected cropping space.' ClearVue Technologies Global chief executive officer Martin Deil Under the deal, OptiCrop's proprietary ground-source heat-exchange cooling solution will be installed at a one-acre greenhouse being constructed by a global irrigation and greenhouse provider. The system's cooling coils are designed to optimise the temperatures of nutrient fluids that supply elevated plant gutters across the greenhouse for improved plant growth and energy efficiency. ClearVue Technologies Global chief executive officer Martin Deil said: 'This first sale for OptiCrop is a significant milestone for our ag-tech division and demonstrates early commercial traction in the protected cropping space. It validates our strategic direction following the acquisition of ROOTS and underlines the strong market potential for integrated solar greenhouses and sustainable climate-control solutions.' ClearVue's focus has for some time been strongly directed towards agricultural greenhouse design, employing its proprietary solar photovoltaic glass technologies to provide and support other optimal greenhouse solutions.
