Demokas and the PROOF R&D Center

New ideas often arise from a practical question raised in the greenhouse. Whereas we used to develop and test new techniques at the Demokwekerij, we now do so at our Demokas in Kwintsheul and at the PROOF R&D Center in Honselersdijk. Here, ideas are given the space to be further developed, tested, and put into practice.

Our Demokas provides a good overview of various cultivation, hoisting, and logistics systems and offers space to demonstrate and further develop technical solutions. At PROOF, we take it a step further, allowing innovations to be researched and tested under real-world growing conditions.

Well-thought-out, tested, and refined

At Metazet, we don’t rush things. A new solution must not only be technically sound, but above all, it must work in the day-to-day operations of the greenhouse. That’s why new products and systems are carefully thought out, tested, and further refined. Depending on the application, we do this in our Demo Greenhouse or at the R&D Center PROOF. This way, we move step by step through the cycle from concept to a solution that’s ready for real-world use.

Demokas

In our mechanical “cold” greenhouse in Kwintsheul, you’ll find complete greenhouse setups, from innovative cultivation gutters to hanging rails for the hanging basket system. Here, growers and partners can explore our solutions and see how different cultivation systems are implemented in the greenhouse. At the same time, we use the Demo Greenhouse to further develop and test technical solutions.

To be able to test new solutions under real-world growing conditions, Metazet is a co-founder of the R&D Center PROOF.

PROOF R&D Center

To ensure that new solutions can actually be tested in real-world growing conditions, Metazet, together with HortiTech and Harmoniz, is the initiator of PROOF in Honselersdijk.

PROOF is an R&D Center for research, development, and demonstration in greenhouse horticulture. Here, technology, cultivation expertise, and plant breeding come together, allowing new ideas, products, and technologies to be further developed under real growing conditions. Within PROOF, Metazet contributes expertise in areas such as technology, engineering, and greenhouse design.

Are you facing a challenge in the greenhouse, too?

The best ideas usually don’t come from sitting at a desk, but from day-to-day experience in the greenhouse. By combining the grower’s experience with our technical expertise, we work together to develop those ideas into practical solutions for greenhouse horticulture.
