01 · Length

37 bay sections of 4.50 m14 ft 9 in set the length: 166.50 m546 ft 3 in. The bay section — the column spacing along the gutter — is the repeat unit of the structure: one more section adds 4.50 m14 ft 9 in of length.

02 · Width

24 truss spans of 8.00 m26 ft 3 in set the width: 192.00 m629 ft 11 in. That completes the growing footprint: 31,968 m²344,100 sq ft under glass.

03 · Service building

A 108.0 × 32.0 m354 ft 4 in × 105 ft service building sits alongside the greenhouse — 3,456 m²37,200 sq ft for packing, technical installations and storage.

A greenhouse is not bought by the square metre. It is bought by the kilo it returns, in the climate it stands in.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

Who is the Plus 8 Acre for?

Established growers, food production companies and investors running dedicated commercial operations — the step before fully custom turnkey projects.

What crops can I grow?

All high-density hydroponic crops — tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, strawberries, leafy greens — including sensitive varieties, with maximum climate stability from the 6 m air volume.

What is included?

The standardized Plus hardware package: 6 m Venlo structure, glass cladding, heating, dual screening, irrigation/fertigation, suspended gutters, electrical drives and climate computer, plus the service building.

Can I grow beyond 8 acres?

Yes — beyond the GrowPro line, DutchGreenhouses designs fully custom turnkey projects of any size. The 8 Acre is a common stepping stone; see our turnkey projects for what comes next.

How much does it cost?

The model has a fixed hardware price in one price book — the same book our quote documents are generated from, and per m² it is the lowest in the GrowPro line. Basis: FOB Rotterdam hardware (6 m Venlo structure, glass cladding, heating, dual screening, irrigation/fertigation, suspended gutters, electrical drives, climate computer), engineering included; local assembly and concrete are always estimated separately.
