Welcome to the TC System

Design

We get a full understanding of what you want to achieve before we even think about design. Then we build the system around your crop — not a generic house. On a new build or an expansion, we start from the day plants move into the facility and work the schedule backwards, so climate, irrigation, and lighting are ready when the crop is.

Build

Every project is treated the same: we work for you. Through construction we act as your representative, making sure the greenhouse is built according to how its controls will integrate.

Optimize

A greenhouse coming online needs extra attention. When construction is complete, our engineering and technical teams monitor the house as it starts up, fine-tuning the logic and confirming the climate is where it needs to be.

Support

After the project is complete, our service team is on standby 24/7, so your greenhouse or indoor grow keeps performing as designed.

The Platform and Equipment Behind Every Project

Every greenhouse or controlled environment we design, build, and support runs on a horticultural platform and, when needed, a commercial BMS system.

Horticultural Platform

Based on your needs and budget, we’ll recommend the right platform. We are authorized dealers for Argus, Hoogendoorn, and Microclimates, and have access to other platforms as needed.

BMS Platform

Where a controlled environment needs commercial HVAC depth — dehumidification, boilers, chillers, and the mechanical plant behind the crop — we bring Johnson Controls into the same supervisory layer. Parts, documentation, and certified support stay available for the life of the facility.

The Equipment We Run

Horticultural: Climate, irrigation, lighting, and crop sequences from one command center
Mechanical: Boilers, chillers, and dehumidification for controlled environments
Architecture: open systems — legacy controllers and third-party sub-systems integrate instead of getting ripped out
Access: command center, networked PC, or mobile — no proprietary lock-in
