Valoya’s crop science legacy and expertise applied to large-scale crop production means predictable results, high yields and photobiology support, seed to sale.

Valoya is a research-driven horticultural LED lighting provider. Since 2009, we have been committed to creating the best LED grow lights in the market. We design, manufacture and market our proprietary, patent-protected LED technology with a strong focus on plant biology research and creating the best possible spectra for optimal plant development. Our wide spectra optimize the growth of a variety of plants in applications such as crop science, medicinal plant cultivation and vertical farming.

Today, Valoya’s plant trial database includes 600+ plant trials on over 300 plant species/varieties. The light spectrum we developed for medical plants is one of the widest on the market and includes wavelengths beyond the PAR area (400-700 nm) such as far-red and UV-A. Thanks to this, plants develop a compact phenotype and produce more secondary metabolites and terpenes. Furthermore, that addition of shorter wavelengths such as deep blue and UV-A reduce chances of pest development.

Our fixtures are made up of the highest quality components, including custom LED chips that produce our patented light spectra. The product portfolio has diversified as well, and we successfully serve professional cannabis cultivators and vertical farmers, in addition to crop scientists. The technology we bring to the market is original, designed for and well suited to its particular purpose. To bring our products to the market, we work with a dedicated distributor network, including some of the most well-known horticultural industry players, such as Conviron and Weiss Technik. Nowadays, Valoya’s LED grow lights can be found in installations in more than 50 countries.

With a strong competence in research and technology development, we have been granted more than 100 patents, most of which are in the USA, Canada, and Europe, but also in other territories.

At Valoya, the focus remains on helping our customers grow. Beyond just the energy savings from using LED lights, we can help customers drive their plant performance to industry-leading outcomes. Years of research, both in-house and in collaboration with the world’s top universities and institutions, have resulted in one of the most knowledge-driven light protocols and experiences used by those professionally cultivating plants worldwide. And our work is far from over.

Valoya was built on scientific curiosity, and its solutions are firmly grounded in its research-based approach. We are still working on pushing this industry forward to make the production of food and medicines more efficient for the growing global population.
