As previously announced ClearVue’s greenhouse is being built adjacent to the two recently completed polycarbonate research greenhouses that form part of a larger $7.45m grains research precinct partly funded by infrastructure grants from the Grains Research Development Corporation. The new precinct was officially opened by Agriculture Minister Alannah McTiernan amongst other dignitaries on 16 December 2020 (for more information see Murdoch Media Release of 17 December 2020). Once completed, the ClearVue greenhouse will add to and form a part of this precinct.

 

The Company expects that the greenhouse will lead to greater market awareness of the ClearVue product and technology globally - more specifically it will increase awareness of the role that the ClearVue product and technology can play in food security and protected-cropping agriculture – a key target for the Company’s sales efforts alongside high-rise commercial architecture.

 

Commenting on the progress with the ClearVue greenhouse at Murdoch, ClearVue Chief Executive Officer Ken Jagger has said:

 

We are starting to see strong interest globally for the ClearVue product from greenhouse suppliers, growers and other protected cropping end-users. We expect the fully constructed greenhouse to lead to an even greater market awareness of our technology and product.

 

We look forward to updating the market once the greenhouse is commissioned in the next few months, and as the larger research aspects of the project progresses.
