Bogaerts UV-C anti-mildew robot
The Hoogstraten Research Center studies show that UV-C light, administered via a UV robot, can control mildew well. To ensure this application becomes available in practice, Coöperatie Hoogstraten invested in a few demo robots.
After careful market research, they chose the Qii-Drive Shif t UV-C from Bogaerts Greenhouse Logistics two years ago. This fully autonomous robot precisely applies the UV-C recipe.
Bogaerts, too, is well-pleased with this news. "Firstly, credit where credit is due. The Hoogstraten Research Center found the key to success, thanks to their years of research into combatting mildew. In that, we're partly the lucky ones who were approached to develop an autonomous platform with which the treatment could be accurately administered," says Mattijs Van Loon.
