About Light Science Technologies Holdings
plc (www.lightsciencetechnologiesholdings.com
(http://www.lightsciencetechnologiesholdings.com/) )
Light Science Technologies Holdings plc is the holding company of the Group's
controlled environment agriculture ("CEA") division, Light Science
Technologies Ltd ("Light Science Technologies"), and its contract electronics
manufacturing ("CEM") division, UK Circuits and Electronics Solutions Limited
("UK Circuits").
Controlled Environment Agriculture
Light Science Technologies was founded in 2019 and is the Company's grow
lights and sensor technology business, providing bespoke recipes and
technologies tailored to customers' needs, with key targets including indoor,
vertical, glasshouses, polytunnels and medicinal farming markets. The
all-in-one CEA solution will include analysing customers' crop growing
requirements to provide bespoke, low-energy and sustainable equipment.
Market drivers include: food and water shortages in many parts of the world,
growing global population, UK and other government policy encouraging
sustainable and efficient growth methods, increased scrutiny of the effect of
food production on climate change and the continuing transition away from
processed foods.
sensorGROW
sensorGROW was launched in June 2022 and its technology will enable farmers to
monitor the following key air zone growing factors in real-time: carbon
dioxide levels, humidity, light, oxygen - and in the future: air speed, plant
disease, soil, temperature and water pH levels. By monitoring these key
growing factors, farmers can save money through better management of
resources: water, nutrients, fertilisers and energy - while increasing yields
and producing healthier crops.
nurturGROW
nurturGROW is a sustainable grow lighting product range, offering an
innovative, high-performance and cost-effective solution for indoor farming,
covering greenhouses, vertical farming, polytunnels and medicinal plants.
Created with four core component parts, the nurturGROW range is made of high
quality, durable materials to give growers the ideal balance between strength
and optimal performance, minimising the amount of materials needed to
drastically cut down on waste and reduce carbon footprint.
Contract Electronics Manufacturing
UK Circuits is the Company's CEM focussed division, profit making with strong
revenues. The Group designs, procures, and manufactures high-quality CEM
products, specialising in Printed Circuit Boards, which are used in a range of
sectors including audio, automotive, electronics, gas detection, lighting,
pest control, telecommunications and, more recently, the CEA market.
