- Whitewashing: Everglades contacted us to whitewash their commercial glasshouse in readiness for the Spring / Summer season.
The Process:
Commercial Glasshouse Contracts Ltd attended the premises to whitewash the rooftops of the glasshouses, to ensure completion prior to the warmer weather.
- Why Whitewash?: Whitewash helps to reduce excessive heat and glare, creating a cooler, more stable environment for plants to thrive in during the warmer months.
The Result:
The implemented solutions led to significant improvements:
- Whitewashing is a simple but highly effective way to control temperature, prevent scorching, reduce water loss and improve plant health and growing conditions.
