Double screen LUXOUS 1243 D and LUXOUS 1347 H2no FR,
helps agro-firm Oldeevskaya to realize their goals.
The agro-firm Oldeevskaya (23 HA of size, including 10 ha of new greenhouses), located
near the Russian city Cheboksary is the biggest producer of glass grown vegetables for
the Chuvash republic. Besides cucumbers and tomatoes, also flowers and herbs are
grown at Oldeevskaya and it produces milk by a large cattle of (Dutch black and white)
cows. The firm, that has a history of more than 30 years, for a long time was managed by
the sympathetic and enthusiastic director Eugenia Alekseevna Belikova. Nowadays the
agro-firm Oldeevskaya is headed by her son –Andrey Victorovich Belikov.
In 2010 a new modern tomato greenhouse was build. On recommendation of the
Svensson climate consultant, the transparent energy saving screen LUXOUS 1243 D
was chosen. Already in the first year, many screen-hours were made in the winter.
Besides the nights, the very high light transmission of the LUXOUS 1243 D (81% under
cloudy weather) made it possible to use the screen also on the very cold Cheboksary’s
winter days. Apart from high energy savings, also a good micro climate, resulting in a
good growth of the young tomato plants was realized with the Svensson climate screen.
During summer time the LUXOUS 1243 D took care of protecting the crop and its fruit
against the intensive sun radiation and high temperatures. The applied screen strategy
on a typical summer day: closing the screen for 75% at a sun radiation of about 750
2
[W/m ]. In the greenhouse a maximal temperature of 33 [ºC] and Relative Humidity of 5060 [%] was realized while outside the temperature was reaching 40.7 [ºC], and humidity –
20-30%. In 2010, thanks to the screen with energy-saving and shading properties, it was
possible to reach one of the highest yields in the new greenhouse. Oldeevskaya was

awarded for producing the most kilograms tomatoes per m in Russia!
In 2013 a new 2.2 HA sized modern greenhouse for growing cucumbers was build.
Continuing the good screen experiences, this time a double screen installation was
made. Under the LUXOUS 1243 D the very clear LUXOUS 1347 H2no FR was installed.
Realizing a good growth climate and EXTRA energy savings during the winters were the
main reasons for this choice. The H2no function results in a very high light transmission
of the screen. Explanation: in the very cold weather of Cheboksary, the screen is closed
for many hours during daytime. With an adult and evaporating crop in the greenhouse,
the screen becomes wet by condense drops hanging under the screen. H2no takes care
of floating out the drops into a water film, resulting in no reflections of the sun light
passing through the screen.
