Fluence by OSRAM, in an announcement sent out via press release, released
its RAZR Modular System, the company’s newest LED solution for
vertical farmers featuring market-leading efficacies of 2.6 µmol/J under
Fluence’s PhysioSpec BROAD R3 white spectrum.
Fluence’s years of experience collaborating with vertical farmers
have proven PhysioSpec BROAD R3 is the optimal spectrum choice for crop
propagation and full-cycle cultivation for a multitude of leafy greens,
microgreens, herbs and other vegetables. Under Fluence’s BROAD R3 spectrum, the newest RAZR system is 18% more
efficient than previous generations. The RAZR Modular System’s mechanical mounting and electrical wiring are also highly
configurable and easily integrate into various racking styles. The system’s flexible design makes it uniquely suited for scale in a
vertical farming environment.
“Vertical farmers are fueling some of the greatest
innovations in modern crop production,” said David Cohen, CEO of Fluence. “By simplifying the food supply chain, vertical farms can
deliver fresh, nutritional produce to localized regions. These intricate
cultivation facilities typically require custom, multilayer racking systems
with specialized LED lighting solutions that can optimize plant development
through various growth stages. Our RAZR Modular System not only reduces overall
operational expenses through its efficient and configurable fixtures, but also
offers a proven spectrum for propagation and vertical cultivation for leafy
greens, microgreens, herbs and other vegetables.”
Fluence distributes its RAZR
Modular System to vertical farmers directly and through partners such as
Ecopromt, a leading greenhouse consultancy. Ecopromt’s cultivation experts have designed a fully integrated cart
system featuring the RAZR Modular System as well as a proprietary irrigation
system. Ecopromt’s integrated cart system has been installed in multiple
vertical farms throughout Europe and the U.S.
