Recirculation is not only about saving on fertilizer and water costs, it’s also about saving our future. Zwart Systems can help you design the best greenhouse system for maximizing the value of your drain water and protecting your crops.
Recirculation Systems
Did you know that in 2010 Ontario Canada’s government legislated that all greenhouse water must be reused? Recirculation has become a big industry topic.
Whether it is to recycle water on a simple closed-loop ebb and flood system or a more complex farm plan, the Zwart Systems team has the expertise to help convert a farm that recycles no water to a farm that gets it all back to the last drop.
Zwart Systems knows that recirculation is not only about saving on fertilizer and water costs, it’s also about saving our future.

Water Storage & Irrigation Systems | UnderSun Acres II
After a very successful project in 2017, Under Sun Acres has now completed phase two of a new 25-acre state-of-the-art glass pepper greenhouse range. This project was made in conjunction with a new natural gas co-gen station to supply power to the grid while using the heat and CO2 produced in the greenhouses.
Multi-level benching has allowed us to do more with less while focusing on what matters most: plant health. The team at Zwart didn’t simply supply us equipment and walk away, but helped us understand how to be successful with vertical growing.
