Enhancing climate control for greenhouses: How our sensors are driving sustainable growth

29 April 2025

At Process Sensing Technologies, we specialize in developing cutting-edge solutions that address the unique challenges faced in the climate control industry, particularly in greenhouse environments where repeatability is key to plant health and productivity. Through our innovative sensor technologies, we’re helping industries like horticulture, agriculture, and indoor cultivation optimize their operations, ensuring sustainable growth in challenging environments.


The challenge: Managing complex greenhouse environments

In greenhouse operations, achieving the perfect balance of temperature, humidity, CO2 levels, and light intensity is crucial for the optimal growth of flowers, vegetables, and plants. These factors must be carefully regulated to create a healthy environment for plants to thrive. However, climate control systems often face challenges such as sensor drift, which can affect performance and accuracy over time.

Additionally, greenhouse measurement boxes are often compact and designed with specific environmental conditions in mind, requiring sensors that not only fit in small spaces but also withstand harsh conditions, including the presence of chemicals in the air.


Our solution: Precision sensors with drift compensation

To tackle these challenges, we developed a custom sensor solution equipped with an application-driven algorithm that compensates for sensor drift in environments with high chemical concentrations. We created a solution that significantly reduces drift, ensuring more accurate readings and a longer sensor lifespan compared to traditional sensors used in cleaner environments.

This solution provides greenhouse operators with reliable, long-lasting sensors that help maintain the delicate balance required for optimal plant growth.


Streamlined logistics and packaging

Given the large scale of sensor deployments in greenhouse operations, we also focused on simplifying the logistics process. Our solution includes a complete, all-in-one package, including custom packaging, barcoding, and labeling. This end-to-end service ensures that greenhouse operators can efficiently manage inventory, reduce setup time, and minimize operational disruptions.


Key features of our climate control sensors

Our custom sensors, designed specifically for greenhouse environments, offer several key advantages:

  • Tailored design for specific greenhouse conditions, ensuring optimal performance
  • Rugged and durable construction to withstand harsh environments
  • Compact size with no housing, ideal for space-constrained installations
  • Specific digital output to meet precise operational needs
  • A6 size calibration certificate available digitally or on paper for easy verification
  • Compact packaging with QR codes, making it easy for users to access manuals and product details

  • Results: A smarter, more sustainable solution

    By addressing the unique challenges of greenhouse climate control, our precision sensors enable more accurate monitoring and regulation of environmental conditions. This results in healthier plants, improved productivity, and a more sustainable approach to agriculture.

    We are committed to provide high-quality, innovative solutions that help industries thrive in their mission to support sustainable growth. Our precision sensors, produced in our Dutch factory, are designed to make a difference in greenhouse environments around the world.
