New AVF member Bosman van Zaal

Bosman Van Zaal develops innovative, sustainable, and integrated solutions in the field of data management, logistical automation, and fully controlled plant-based production and cultivation facilities and equipment. Their software and installations cooperate to create the ideal cultivation climate, the best use of space, the lowest energy consumption, and the optimum deployment of labor.

Their solutions are based on more than 100 years of experience in the international horticultural industry of food, flowers, and plant-based medicines. They provide these solutions to make businesses of knowledge-intensive frontrunners in breeding, propagation, ornamental-, vegetable- and soft fruit production, vertical farms, and research institutes grow.

Bosman Van Zaal is unique in its holistic approach to turnkey in-house design and the realization of complex projects. From the head office in Aalsmeer, experienced engineers apply new technologies for specific customer requirements. These technical solutions are used by companies and institutions worldwide, such as Bayer, Wageningen University, GrowUp Farms, HilverdaFlorist, and much more.

The core business of Bosman Van Zaal is to help growers by realizing the most perfect cultivation environment possible, for the crop, the customer, and the planet. When producing crops destined for food, research, medicines, or cosmetics, where the quality of the basic product, growing environment, and processing are of vital importance, a vertical farm might be the solution to achieve that perfect environment.

When designing complete vertical farms, hygiene and efficiency are key for Bosman Van Zaal. They achieve this with logistical cultivation systems and robotics, advanced tracking, and tracing software, fully closed and controllable facilities, and a smart HVAC design.
