How Mobile Multi-Tier Vertical Farming Solutions Will Reshape Your Operations

Written By Montel

When you purchase new for your indoor farming operation, you’re investing in more than just the shelves and installation; you’re investing in a partnership.

Montel is there for you, from your first inquiry into mobile racking to the last day of your installation (and beyond). Here’s how a partnership with Montel can help you create a mobile vertical farming and cultivation system that will empower your facility’s production, efficiency, and safety.

Increased productivity through better workflow

More tiers means a bigger yield, right? It certainly does, but it also means that you have to ask yourself some serious questions about how mobile multi-tier vertical farming solutions will reshape your operations.

Mobile vertical racking will shrink our footprint, so how should you rearrange your layout to improve how you grow? Should you go higher? Double tier? Triple tier? More? How wide should you set the aisles between your mobile racks to maximize your usable space without compromising on workflow? What tasks, such as watering, should be left to your employees and what should be automated? Should your indoor grow op choose the raw sunshine power of high-pressure sodium bulbs or the efficiency of LEDs?

When these questions mount up, an experienced mobile racking partner can help guide you toward the decisions that will keep you producing yields of the highest quality while retaining every efficiency vertical farming and cultivation has to offer. Montel and your local Montel distributors have learned a lot from all the farmers and cannabis cultivators we’ve worked with, and we’re happy to impart our knowledge in ways that will improve your build, cut costs, increase your yield, and keep the cultivation train rolling.

Safer, OSHA-compliant workspaces

Maximizing your indoor grow operation shouldn’t put your workers at risk. It should instead encourage your team to work naturally and intelligently, all while keeping your crop protected.

Does your current approach to multi-tier racking force your workers to stand on unsafe ladders, rickety shelving, and even buckets in order to water, defoliate, or otherwise care for plants? In the best-case scenario, you’re wasting valuable time and increasing your labor costs. At worst, you’re putting your workers in jeopardy.

Montel knows racking and storage. Unlike many single-tier or rolling benches on the market, our custom vertical farming solutions are OSHA compliant. Our inside sales consultants and distributors can also recommend suitable lift trucks, ladders, and other equipment for accessing your unique multi-tier vertical grow modules. Additionally, our ePulse remote monitoring technology, with smartphone compatibility, puts you in control of who accesses your crops and when.
