Years of research have led to the major qualities of the light source being developed in-house. These qualities make the CLX V1000 unique in its appearance and performance. HortiTech is currently executing performance and demonstration researches for Climalux, together with renowned growers, at the World Horti Center in Naaldwijk, The Netherlands. The complete growing cycle for both cucumbers and tomatoes is being researched and documented, to show how the CLX V1000 performs in a practical growing environment.

Case study – even light level throughout the greenhouse
An even light level at every spot in the greenhouse. It sounds simple, but it is not always easy to realize in practice. In practice, outer walls, a technical room or a shed can cause disadvantageous shadow spots in the greenhouse. Smart application of the possibilities of the CLX-V1000 full-LED grow light system offers a solution.
35% savings on electricity costs through LED grow light system
The first results with the application of the dimmable LED grow light system from Climalux at Carnation Nursery Nieuwland in the Netherlands already show that energy costs have fallen by about a third compared to the same period in 2021. According to Chris Doelman, co-owner of the nursery from Hoek van Holland, it is an indication but the reality will not be much different.
Collaboration Climalux and Priva
The Climalux CLX-V1000 grow light system was recently connected to the Priva Connext horticultural process computer at Carnation Nursery Nieuwland in Hoek van Holland. This makes it possible to communicate with the Horticulture Control Unit of Climalux. As a result, it is now possible to optimally integrate any Climalux grow light system into Priva's horticultural computer systems.
Cultivation-oriented climate for carnations through Climalux LED grow light system
Almost the entire greenhouse of Anjerkwekerij Nieuwland in Hoek van Holland has recently been fitted with CLX V1000 grow lights from Climalux. In the carnation nursery there are various types of single and spray carnations and the ages of the crops differ. The Climalux grow light creates a microclimate around each species, caused by the vertical air movement in combination with the adjustable light intensity.
Less inhibitors used with grow lights
HortiTech recently carried out a trial with the use of Climalux grow lights in hydrangea cultivation at Huub van Leeuwen Westland. The results showed that the use of these grow lights has made the use of inhibitors almost unnecessary. The hydrangeas in this trial were not exposed to light, the grow lights were mainly used because of the vertical ventilation system.
Completely waterproof lighting system for Climalux
The development of a waterproof PSU lamp cable, in collaboration with Draka Kabel from Emmen, means that Climalux from Hoek van Holland can now offer its lighting systems as completely waterproof, which virtually excludes failures and reduces maintenance to a minimum.
Full-LED with fan delivers surprising results
Grower Bart van Leeuwen of Kwekerij Huub van Leeuwen in Naaldwijk considers it important to anticipate the future. That is why he started a trial last year with full-LED lights and fans above some of his pot and bedding plants. The first results are promising, but also raise new questions.
Review online knowledge event: Climalux introduces new top LED lighting CLX V1000
What are the biggest advantages of Climalux's latest LED fixture? What are the results of the practical studies with the CLX V1000? And how does this fit with Plant Empowerment? These and more issues were answered during the online knowledge event 'Climalux introduces new top LED lighting CLX V1000' on 18 February 2021. During this one-hour event, the viewer was introduced to the LED grow lamp, which increases production with substantially less energy due to the use of the light spectrum of the sun.
Climalux introduces CLX V1000 during online knowledge event
On 18 February 2021 Climalux organized an online knowledge event, where the latest top LED lighting for horticultural purposes, the CLX V1000, has been introduced. At the digital event, the technical possibilities are explained and the findings from practice were shared.
CLX V1000 in collaboration with growers
As long as the world continues to change, the horticultural sector will continue to look for new developments, ideas and technologies. This also applies to the lighting sources that support cultivation at many horticultural greenhouses. For 14 years, in good cooperation with growers, we have been working on the development of a powerful LED light source that works, based on the daylight spectrum of the sun.
