>>> Present in 80 countries >>> 2 production sites in France Richel Group >>> 10,000 ha built >>> 15 sales offices throughout the world The RICHEL Group was created in 1964 and has been a family-run business for 3 generations. For more than 50 years, we have been the French specialists and European leader in the manufacture of plastic-covered greenhouses. Our know-how has also enabled us to grow in other business areas that have become essential for the Group: • The manufacture of VENLO glass greenhouses since 2004 • The development of storage solutions through our SHELTERALL® range Every day,...

dedicated to your agronomic requirements qualitY that stands the test of time > OV90 To combine strength and volume, we have developed the OV90 tube. Made of High Tensile Steel (HTS), the OV90 tube’s inertia is more than twice that of the 60 mm ovalised tube made of conventional quality steel. For greater resistance to snow loads. The coat of varnish applied during the manufacture of our rectangular tubes provides more than twice the protection of a standard tube with Sendzimir Z275 galvanisation (CETIM test, November 2007). We have created a system for ondemand control of the covering film tension....

APPROACH IMPROVING LIGHT TRANSMISSION Thanks to streamlined arches, spans of 2.5 to 4 m, combined with our films quality, our greenhouses are the brightest on the market. Their Gothic form (27°C) allows maximum penetration of light. When there is not enough natural light, assimilation lighting provides crops with the extra brightness needed for growth (High Pressure Sodium [HPS] lamps and LED lighting). TAILORED Nutrition Consistency and control of the intake of nutrients are key to effective nutrition. We design the ferti-irrigation system to suit your project, in line with your specifications....

to suit the needs of your crops! at " \ f IF ' | 1 climate control facilitates crop management. It is an essential driver for the leaf-fruit ratio. Our heat engineers design effective systems to meet your requirements: controlling the climate in your greenhouse and reducing the impact of heat fluctuations. > Better insulation The double inflated film, created by Richel in 1978 provides heat insulation (30% energy savings). The shape and size of our sections and vents guarantee better sealing. > Volume The towering heights under the gutter and the accentuated Gothic form of bays up to...

>>> An AGRONOMIC APPROACH AN ECO-FRIENDLY APPROACH Our approach takes the environment into account by saving, storing and optimising water: rainwater collection and UV treatment. Our equipped-greenhouse solutions are designed taking the reduction of energy consumption into account in its entirety. Equipped with insect-proof nets, our greenhouses offer protection against pests, therefore reducing the need for pesticides. cO2, an essential nutrient for photosynthesis, is redirected to the core of the greenhouse to be directly assimilated by the plants.
