MONTREAL, QUEBEC, CANADA - Approaching its 10^th anniversary, Sollum Technologies proudly launched new products and services, building on its fully dynamic LED lighting technology managed by a cloud-based platform, SUN as a Service® (SUNaaS®).

“Inspired by nature, Sollum's technology has been successfully implemented in the production of over 85 varieties of produce and 100 acres of greenhouses in North America and Europe,” said Louis Brun, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer. “For nearly 10 years now, we've developed cutting-edge expertise by experimenting with how modulating light benefits crop productivity, plant characteristics and energy consumption, and facilitates pest management. In doing so, we've listened carefully to our customers to understand their needs and supported them in adopting our technology. The evolution of our products and services reflects our findings in the field and discussions, injecting even more flexibility into growers' choices and control over lighting.”

Here is a breakdown:

• SF-E2 TM is a new energy-efficient fixture. The targeted LED spectrum of the new SF-E2 fixture provides maximum energy efficiency and plant growth to energy-conscious growers
• SF-E2 is also suitable for businesses aiming to cohabit HPS technology with easy-to-use LED technology as part of a gradual transition
• To adapt to any greenhouse size and configuration, all Sollum fixtures are now available in three wattages: 400, 800, and 1040 watts

Sollum's lineup of fixtures also includes the SF-ONETM and SF-PROTM. The SF-ONE's simple, flexible technology offers a spectrum that boosts crop productivity, and enables the production of a majority of crops, explained a press release, while the SF-PRO's very broad spectrum provides maximum light modulation to control and maintain a balance between all production parameters such as costs, growth, quality, and sustainability.

“In the spirit of the flexibility inherent in dynamic lighting, we have designed the SUNaaS platform offering to suit the preferences of growers who want to benefit from certain functionalities rather than others,” shared François-Roy Moisan, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer. “As a result, we are proposing a core package included with the purchase of any fixture and an optional advanced package, to which a customer can add additional features that match their priorities. Like our technology, our services now support a highly personalized experience.”

All SF fixtures are powered by the SUNaaS platform, utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) to generate exceptional results thanks to unrivaled precision in the lights' output. Features include automatic real-time dimming based on ambient light variations and the ability to easily create and modify distinct zones to grow multiple products with the same technology.
