By creating an unique material that saves both energy and CO2 emissions in high-tech greenhouses, Infrascreen helps to make horticulture carbon free. Their energy-saving screens are attached horizontally to the top of a greenhouse. This ensures that long-wave radiations are kept inside and less heat escapes. And it works! Infrascreen conducted two successful pilots, including one with a leading Dutch grower.
Perfect match between scale-up and Back
For the past year and a half, Back Maarten Oostenbrink has supported Infrascreen in its growth. Both sides stress that this was a perfect match between the scale-up and the Back, as Infrascreen’s co-founder Henri de Lalande says: ‘Maarten is the best advisor we could hope for and it is working well for us.’ With Maarten’s extensive background in horticulture, he is able to guide them through the complex market dynamics and introduce them to important players, for instance, for pilots they want to conduct. For Maarten, as Back, it has been a great experience working with Infrascreen as well. because by doing so, he is able to contribute to making an impact on the food industry.
