It was Cock van der Voort , the father of Jack of SchermNed , who come up with an worm meshing filter he developed himself many years ago . It is an option to the harmonica netting , much well screw in horticulture .
" We have been working with it for age but have never really given it much packaging , " Jack confess . Together with Terry and Mark , and the rest of the squad , they now extend the fellowship business organisation . " At first , it was mainly breeding companies that necessitate for it . In late years , we have also embark on installing the insect mesh filter at many Cucumis sativus cultivator . "
ClimateAnd now , at the Westland kinsperson companionship , they see the louse mesh filter becoming known in other crops as well . Jack mentions gerbera growers and also tomato growers . " As more growers initiate working with it , we are also getting new results , " he pronounce . Nine years ago now , a TNO study was conducted . A patent of invention on the product followed . The research at the time already show that the interlocking filter , despite being cheaper than harmonica mesh , was not substandard to the more expensive product in terms of performance .
" What we sure enough get word more and more lately is that it is possible for cultivator , even after installing the insect interlock filter , to carry on farm in the same manner , both with the clime computer options and their heads . For good example , gaps with the windows remain the same with our filter . The break is not full of meshing . raw options are not needed . The temperature increment with the filter is a uttermost of 1 degree Anders Celsius . Growers are very enthusiastic about it . "
A interlocking size of 0.27x0.77 millimeters is the choice in 90 percent of case in horticulture , although SchermNed is now also see 0.77 x 0.77 in increasing number .
Getting some airThis is evidenced by , among others , the storey of plant grower WPK , which has had section after departmentscreened off . The positive results , both for keeping out dirt ball and in terms of climate - " when superimpose the charts , we saw no divergence in temperature and absolute and proportional humidness " - meant that a tomato grower who came to see the plant cultivator also took the plunge into netting . " And now we are seeing even more tomato growers making the move . "
The mesh specialist excuse that normally the vent ' scoop ' the wind . With harmonica mesh , also supplied by SchermNed and more often used in new - material body situations , the wind pass by more . " With our meshing filter system , you still create air , thanks to the form of the mesh on the interior of the windowpane . Partly because of this , it remains possible to make good climate . "
Self - cleaningThe more grower run with the insect mesh filter , the more noesis they win about the innovative organization , including about clean the mesh . " For example , a Cucumis sativus grower working with our mesh topology pointed out that the mesh clean itself . That ’s because when the air window opens , the mesh is sucked up a bit . " Spraying it clean is also potential , as WPK does , but so does Florein Gerberas , for example . " From the nursery deck , it ’s done in a matter of s , " he say .
