The build time for a commercial glasshouse can range from several weeks to a few months, depending on size and complexity. Ebtech ensures efficient project delivery through expert planning and coordination.
At Ebtech Glasshouse Systems, we’re a leading UK provider of commercial glasshouse installations, with over 30 years of experience and strong ties to Dutch horticultural engineering.
A nursery focuses on growing and propagating plants, while a garden centre also sells plants, gardening tools, décor, and accessories. At Ebtech, we design bespoke structures suited for both nurseries and modern retail garden centres.
A good garden centre combines functionality, customer flow, and attractive design to enhance the retail experience. At Ebtech, we provide customised garden centre buildings that balance aesthetics with practical growing and retail space.
A portal frame building uses steel or aluminium arches to create wide, open indoor spaces without internal columns. At Ebtech, we offer portal-framed garden centre structures ideal for flexible retail layouts.
Glass, polycarbonate, and composite insulated panels are popular roofing options for garden centres, offering clarity, insulation, and durability. We’ll help you choose the best roofing based on light levels, aesthetics, and energy efficiency.
Yes, modular garden centre buildings offer flexible, scalable options that can grow with your business. We specialise in modular designs tailored to retail and display needs.
Horizontal screens offer energy savings and shading, while vertical screens provide sidewall insulation and climate control. At Ebtech, we install both types, optimising your greenhouse environment based on crop and climate.
If you’re using supplementary lighting at night, blackout screens help to prevent light leakage into the environment. This is an important factor for complying with light pollution regulations and allows you to artificially extend the growing day, offering precise control over plant flowering cycles, leading to less plant stress.
Insect netting prevents pests from entering the greenhouse while maintaining ventilation. We supply and integrate high-quality insect screens to support IPM (Integrated Pest Management) strategies.
An apex screen fits at the roof peak of a glasshouse to control the temperature. At Ebtech, we use apex screens to enhance climate uniformity and reduce energy loss.
Yes, thermal screens significantly reduce heat loss by acting as an insulating layer. Our energy-efficient screen systems help cut heating costs and improve environmental control.
Triple screen systems offer shading, thermal insulation, and blackout functionality in one integrated setup, providing a more energy-efficient environment. We install advanced triple-screen systems for maximum flexibility and climate control.
Mobile benches can be moved to optimise growing space, while static benches remain fixed. At Ebtech Glasshouse Systems, we offer both types, custom-built for your greenhouse layout and crop type.
Ebb and flood benches irrigate plants by flooding the bench surface with nutrient solution and draining it after a set rate. We use automated ebb and flood systems that promote water efficiency and healthy root development.
Yes, container systems are ideal for modular, scalable growing setups within a glasshouse. At Ebtech, we integrate container-based solutions with irrigation and benching for flexible production, which can be fully automated.
