FlowGrow AeroVenlo Greenhouse

A full Venlo greenhouse geometry with high-grade polyethylene covering, double continuous roof ventilation and a modular route from 4,982.4 to 18,259.2 m² under cover.

Interactive phased model

Build the greenhouse in three deliberate steps.

Select a phase to see the complete cumulative configuration. Only the floor colours identify what is added at each step.

Venlo geometry · PE covering

A full Venlo greenhouse engineered for film.

AeroVenlo combines a high-quality steel Venlo structure with a single high-grade polyethylene covering. The geometry remains consistent as the project expands, so growing volume, ventilation, crop routes and central services can be planned as one professional system.

01

Professional structural rhythm

The base greenhouse uses six 9.60 m trusses across 57.60 m, divided into twelve 4.80 m roofs. The 4.50 m longitudinal bay rhythm gives Phase 1 its exact 76.50 m length.

02

Double continuous ventilation

Every roof has a continuous 1,000 mm-deep vent on both sides, shown partially open in the model with visible support and opening arms. Final opening strategy and insect netting depend on the project climate.

03

Purpose-designed PE envelope

The roof frame is represented at 30° and the single PE film plane at 26°. End-wall columns follow every 4.80 m roof, with intermediate side-wall columns at 2.25 m.

One operating system · three building steps

Begin at approximately 25%, expand to 50%, then complete the full project.

The percentages are rounded commercial phases. The exact greenhouse and service-building areas remain visible in the interactive model above.

  1. Phase 1 · start17 bays over 76.50 m, with the internal concrete path at the end wall and a 16.00 × 36.00 m service building on two 8.00 m trusses. Each truss carries two 4.00 m roofs, creating four roofs across the building. The service building starts at the tenth bay.
  2. Phase 2 · longitudinal expansionAdd 16 bays below the shared path and extend the service building by 18.00 m. The concrete path remains one shared logistics zone.
  3. Phase 3 · completeAdd six 9.60 m greenhouse trusses across the full 148.50 m length and a final 18.00 m service-building segment, reaching exactly 18,259.2 m² under cover.

The interactive model communicates the system geometry and expansion principle. It is not a fabrication or structural drawing; loads, profiles, connections, foundations, film and climate systems are finalized for the site. Low-pressure misting and suspended heaters are available as project-specific options.

Before a price is valid

Country, site, structural loads, crop, production objective, utilities, local works, installation scope, currency basis, exclusions and validity must be confirmed.

Where this model fits

The FlowGrow AeroVenlo is the step between a professional connected film greenhouse and a glass-covered Venlo facility. It uses full Venlo geometry, high-quality steel and polyethylene covering for projects that need professional growing volume, continuous roof ventilation and a clearly staged expansion route.

How it must be operated

The modular layout lets the production area, central concrete path and service building grow as one operating system. Crop-water systems, hygiene, technical rooms, harvest handling and staffing must be planned for each phase while protecting the route to the complete 18,259.2 m² configuration.

Risk and resilience

Phased construction reduces the initial covered area, but the shared path, utilities and service infrastructure must be sized deliberately. Structural loads, film specification, ventilation performance, crop value, water continuity and the operator’s technical capability remain project-specific design inputs.

Project facts to verify

The model name is not yet the specification.

Site, crop, market and operating evidence determine the final configuration. These questions must be answered before engineering and budget direction become reliable.

Commercial qualification

Transparent direction before a formal quotation.

We will not publish fabricated package prices. Budget guidance becomes meaningful only when its basis, scope and validity are explicit.
