Ventilated Lighting
Patented integration of canopy ventilation within high-efficiency LED light fixtures enables previously unattainable efficiency in power consumption, lighting uniformity and microclimate control.

Microclimate uniformity For both Greenhouse and Indoor Farms
Adding ventilation into the light fixture provides commercial growers with unprecedented control
The efficiency of LEDs
Maximum control
KAPPA AgTech has patented the integration of LED lighting and canopy ventilation in a single fixture, enabling growers to selectively apply heat (or redirect LED heat) with previously unavailable precision.
reduced costs
lower cost
Ventilated Lighting delivers The Benefits of HPS to finally offer legacy hps facilities a reason to upgrade to led. The distributed Heat derived from HPS is often a benefit, and ventilated lighting provides complete control over the application of that heat without an uncontrolled ir spike.
conventional led fixtures are just scratching the surface
Integrated fixture ventilation cools the light and selectively heats or cools the plants.
HPS lights are completely outclassed.
Conventional LED fixtures can’t compete - Waste heat is used inefficiently, passive cooling reduces LED lifespan, and the installation cost of water cooling increases instead of decreases CAPEX.
KAPPA AgTech Ventilated Lighting enables flawless uniformity with equal unit cost, lower install cost, and direct, distributed, and efficient use of LED heat..
Flawless Uniformity
For indoor or vertical farms, fixture placement 2-inches away, 16-square feet of canopy:

KAPPA AgTech Ventilated Lighting produces a completely uniform par map and perfectly even microclimate across the entire canopy.
*NOTE: Even with fixed placement fixtures, KAPPA AgTech Ventilated lighting still achieves significant efficiency gains versus bar-style lights by reducing the maximum height of the fixture, reducing vertical stacking height, creating perfect lighting uniformity, and flawless microclimate control.
Total Power Consumption per cycle - indoor Farming Light Fixtures
12-week cycle starting from 400µmol/m2/sec and finishing the last seven weeks in flower with KAPPA lights at 1875µmol/m2/sec (10-Bar 800W LED is only capable of reaching peak intensity of 1500µmol/m2/sec at 6") - (left)
Standard 10-Bar 800W LED consumes ~904KWH when used for a full cycle with plant growth from 48" to 6" terminal distance from light.
KAPPA 600W consumes only 446KWH when maintained at 2" distance throughout cycle.
KAPPA 600W consumes ~664KWH with plant growth from 36" to 2" terminal distance from light.
How did we do it?
Adding ventilation into the light fixture provides cultivators with unprecedented benefits
Integrated fixture ventilation cools both the lights and the plants.
we believe Indoor cultivation must become more sustainable
Our vision is to revolutionize the agriculture industry by offering forward-thinking solutions that transcend traditional practices. By harnessing advanced technology and innovative strategies, we aim to empower farmers to overcome challenges and embrace new opportunities in controlled environment agriculture (CEA).

To be clear, these energy benefits come with equal or greater light intensity, far superior uniformity in canopy lighting, and precise control of the microclimate, all of which improve yields. The pathway for sustainability for indoor cultivation is now open.
