“ I think what makes our products unique is that every aspect of their design is engineered specifically for horticultural applications .”
“ Our underlying philosophy is based on an unwavering dedication to innovation that results in the delivery of optimal lighting performance and maximized yields for growers ,” says Jansen van Rensburg .
“ I think what makes our products unique is that every aspect of their design is engineered specifically for horticultural applications ,” she adds . “ From the optical design that delivers ideal distribution and intensity , to the profile of the luminaire that addresses the specific challenges of a given application , to the light spectrum that elicits a particular plant response .”
These product designs are based on insights the company has gained through its strong associations with the grower community . “ These relationships have helped us to identify needs often overlooked by existing products and enabled us to develop innovative solutions to meet those needs ,” Jansen van Rensburg explains . This tradition of forging strong relationships also extends to P . L Light Systems ’ clientele . “ At P . L . Light Systems , everything we do revolves around delivering the very best supplemental grow lighting for each individual customer and application — from custom light plans and calculations , to mounting solutions , to research and new product development .” The company also offers local after-sales support and several ancillary services , including LightShine , an automated reflector cleaning service , and LightCare , a long-term lighting system maintenance and testing service . Looking to the future , Jansen van Rensburg says it ’ s hard to predict how exactly the company will continue to expand over the next decade as the horticultural industry is “ evolving at such a rapid pace .” Still , she expects it will continue with its winning formula of product innovation and relationship building .
“ Everything we do revolves around delivering the very best supplemental grow lighting for each individual customer and application .”
“ I see us making massive progress in terms of developing products and technologies that reduce energy consumption and enhance lighting quality for optimum plant growth . Another likely area of growth for us will be the introduction of additional value-added service offerings .” In fact , P . L . Light Systems already has a number of plans in the research and development stage – though Jansen van Rensburg is keeping tight-lipped on what those are exactly . “ As much as I ’ m bursting with excitement about the many exciting new projects we have in the pipeline , I can ’ t divulge any details just yet ,” she says . “ But trust me in that you ’ ll want to stay tuned .”
