LIGHT WAVE MANIPULATION

SPECTRANET

PROTECT YOUR CROPS

SpectraNet is the ultimate shade net for climate control and light wave manipulation in the agricultural and horticultural industries.

SpectraNet is well known for providing plant and crop protection against harsh weather conditions and damage caused by hail, wind, insects, birds, drought & sunburn.

The brand name SpectraNet aptly describes the product’s ability to manipulate and alter the quantity, quality and relationship of blue, green, red and far-red wavelength energies absorbed by plants.

Four fundamental factors that impact on the physiology of plants are:

– Photosynthesis
– Photomorphogenesis
– Transpiration
– Respiration

SpectraNet plays a major role in all these areas, by manipulating and altering the quantity and quality of photosynthetic active radiation energy absorbed by plants. Photosynthesis is driven by temperature, light intensity, light quality, light duration, carbon dioxide quantity, water quality and nutrients to produce energy (sugars) for plant growth and food production. Photomorphogenesis on the other hand is light-mediated changes in plant growth and development. 

The plant’s size, shape and appearance are influenced by the relationship of blue, green, red and far-red wavelengths absorbed by the plant. SpectraNet’s light transmittance factors vary from 4% to 96% dependent upon the colour and pattern of the netting.
