Bridge Greenhouses launch new greenhouse roof drone spraying service

At Bridge Greenhouses, we offer a professional drone cleaning and shading service to commercial greenhouses and polytunnels across the UK.

Greenhouse structures must be carefully maintained and with the UK’s unpredictable weather conditions, it’s especially important to stay on top of external, hard-to-access areas of the structure like the roof and glass panels.

Our innovative roof drone spraying service enables growers, nurseries and garden centres to efficiently clean or apply an environmentally-safe shading agent to their greenhouse roofs – enhancing the amount of light entering your structure to better support healthy crop growth.

Greenhouse growers can expect to receive benefits from the roof drone spraying service, including:

Cleaner roof, better crops

The more your greenhouse crops are exposed to light conditions that aren’t suited for their optimal growth – either through dirt obscuring sunlight or a lack of shading causing crops to wither – the more your yield may drop.

Bridge Greenhouses’ drone roof spraying maintenance plans offer routine servicing to keep your greenhouse in peak condition, promoting conditions that support bigger and better yields for your crops. The drone will keep the roof in perfect condition if cleaned as part of an annual service.

Fast and Effective

Due to the advanced spraying capabilities of our drones, we can tint or clean large areas quickly and efficiently. This saves time and disruption compared to traditional methods which can be time consuming, this is especially valuable when servicing large commercial structures.

With minimal time spent on site, you can quickly return to your day-to-day operations.

Cost-effective

The precise spray application from our agricultural drones ensures an even coverage is distributed across every square centimetre of the greenhouse panels, minimising any waste throughout the process.

Thanks to this high-accuracy spraying, a lower volume of cleaning or shading agent is required, making it a more cost-effective option for growers looking to reduce their resource use. Additionally, the automated process reduces the need for manual labour, requiring fewer people to complete the task.

Reduced Risk

Safety is a critical concern when cleaning greenhouses, especially when performed on high up or delicate surfaces like glass or polythene roof panels. However, with our drone spraying service, cleaning and shading has never been safer.

By carrying out all operations from the ground, our GPS controlled drones eliminate the health and safety risk of personnel climbing on glass roofs, whilst also reducing potential damage risks to the greenhouse structure.
