Bylinky

“Bylinky S.R.O. is owned by the Swedish Spisa Group, which has several facilities in Europe, including Poland, England, Portugal and Sweden. We cultivate herbs, currently on an area of ​​2 hectares. We are the largest producer of fresh herbs in the Czech Republic.”

Solving Mildew Problems with DryGair

“We currently have six DryGair units in Bylinky, which helps us dehumidify the climate in the greenhouse. We bought the first two DryGairs in 2020. It was mainly because of downy mildew on basil, which we had big problems with during the summer.

The problem is most pressing when it rains outside and the temperatures are high, those are ideal conditions for the development of downy mildew on basil leaves.

Since we have been using DryGair, we have had no problem with downy mildew on basil, which is our main product and the best-selling product in our portfolio of herbs, that includes 12 to 14 species.”

Promoting an Active Climate

“What are the benefits of installing those DryGair units? Well, first of all, it solves the problem of excess moisture. It creates air circulation – the movement of air in the greenhouse, so that you don’t have a ‘dead climate’, which is very important. At the same time, you’ll reduce fungal diseases. You don’t need to use any agrochemicals.”

Full Solution to Humidity with 50% Savings

“Our goal is to achieve a maximum of 80% relative humidity in the greenhouse. As soon as humidity rises above 80%, during the winter, we would heat and ventilate. But this isn’t possible during the summer months, from spring to autumn. A modern alternative to the classic method is to replace it with the DryGair units.

As a bonus, you get condensed water that you can use in the growing process. One of the main advantages is that you save an average of around 50% on greenhouse heating costs.”
