ClearVue secures $80,000 first sale of new greenhouse technology
ClearVue Technologies has chalked up another run on the board by securing its first commercial agri-tech sale to install its greenhouse ground-source heat-exchange technology. The deal is worth $80,000. The sale was achieved through ClearVue's wholly owned Israeli subsidiary Opticrop, which ClearVue formed last year to acquire the intellectual property and assets of ROOTS Sustainable Agricultural Technologies. ROOTS was an Israeli-based protected-cropping agriculture technology supplier formerly listed on the ASX. Its award-winning assets include Root Zone Temperature Optimization (RTZO) and Irrigation by Condensation (IBC) technologies, which the company developed to enhance plant growth and productivity. The technology also optimises water use, using stand-alone irrigation systems that extract water from humidity. Under the deal, OptiCrop's proprietary ground-source heat-exchange cooling solution will be installed at a one-acre greenhouse being constructed by a global irrigation and greenhouse provider. The system's cooling coils are designed to optimise the temperatures of nutrient fluids that supply elevated plant gutters across the greenhouse for improved plant growth and energy efficiency. ClearVue's focus has for some time been strongly directed towards agricultural greenhouse design, employing its proprietary solar photovoltaic glass technologies to provide and support other optimal greenhouse solutions. Following years of practical testwork, including over four years of studies at its trial greenhouse at Murdoch University in Perth, ClearVue's technologies and developmental thinking have evolved towards autonomous greenhouses. The acquisition of the ROOTS IP and assets brings ClearVue's dream closer to fruition by integrating ROOTS technologies through its Opticrop subsidiary with its own range of solar power-generating glass panels. Deil said OptiCrop has hit the ground running with its first project delivery for its client by a global leader in precision irrigation solutions - an agri-tech company engaged in projects in more than 110 countries and which has irrigated more than 10 million hectares of land, serving more than two million farmers. ClearVue products are tailor-made for protected-cropping agriculture. They can generate power to run or control glasshouse equipment, including ventilation, monitoring, growth and conditions recording, alarm systems, pumps, lighting, shade and heat transmission and reflection, while materially reducing energy use. The company's inaugural greenhouse project sale represents a key milestone for both ClearVue and Opticrop. It augurs well for the potential of future demand for the companies' integrated technologies in the growing agri-tech space. Importantly, both the technologies for root cooling and production of irrigation water from natural humidity are applicable to open-air agriculture, giving the companies even more scope for potential expansion. With growing populations, increased water demands and a drying climate, protected agriculture and optimised water use would seem to be inevitable needs that both companies are positioning themselves to help meet.

ROOTS Develops Ultra-Compact 450㎛ PiG Technology Optimized for Smart Multi-Beam Headlights
SEOUL, South Korea, May 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ROOTS CO., LTD., a company with proprietary Phosphor in Glass (PiG) technology—an essential optical component in automotive headlights—has successfully developed an ultra-compact 450㎛ PiG optimized for next-generation smart multi-beam headlights. This achievement marks a significant evolution of existing PiG technology, further strengthening ROOTS's technological capabilities and enhancing its competitiveness in the global market. ROOTS, a South Korean company specializing in high-power LED PiG components, semi-conductor-related parts, and chemical products, began developing PiG technology in the mid-2010s based on semiconductor processing techniques. PiG, a component combining phosphor and glass, plays a critical role in determining the optical characteristics of various high-power lighting products, including automotive headlights, daytime running lights (DRLs), and turn signals. In the automotive industry, demand for advanced lighting technologies, such as smart multi-beam headlights, has surged in recent years, leading to the development of various high-power LED modules. Among them, PiG technology plays a crucial role in delivering high brightness, excellent viewing angles (low color shift with angle), and optimized contrast ratios (low variation in contrast). To meet these requirements, ROOTS has continuously advanced its process technologies based on semiconductor manufacturing techniques to optimize PiG performance. Notably, ROOTS carries out the entire PiG manufacturing process in-house, overseeing every step from the fabrication and processing of PiG glass and phosphor wafers (including wafer fabrication, thinning, and polishing) to the final PiG chip production. As a result of these comprehensive capabilities, ROOTS's proprietary PiG technology has been recognized as a groundbreaking and innovative solution in the market, earning the company the NET (New Excellent Technology) certification from the Korean government. The newly developed ultra-compact 450㎛ PiG is optimized for smart multi-beam headlights and has achieved outstanding results in enhancing key performance metrics such as beam straightness, COA (Color of Angle) viewing angle, and luminance. Despite its reduced size, the miniaturized PiG maintains high performance, enabling more compact headlight modules while meeting the next-generation demands for miniaturization and high efficiency in advanced automotive lighting systems. Building on its expertise in LED and semiconductor processing technologies, ROOTS not only leads in PiG innovation but also demonstrates strong specialization across a wide range of semiconductor-related products. The company has successfully localized key materials—previously dominated by a few global players—such as silica slurry for silicon wafer backside polishing, diamond slurry for sapphire wafers, neutral flux cleaners, eco-friendly solder mask removers, and chemical agents for laser coating, all with equivalent performance. Through these achievements, ROOTS delivers advanced chemical solutions across the entire semiconductor processing spectrum. With the development of its ultra-compact PiG, ROOTS plans to expand its technology beyond the smart automotive lighting market into various other industrial sectors. By pursuing sustainable technological innovation and differentiated product development, the company aims to further solidify its position in the global market. The successful development of the ultra-compact PiG reaffirms ROOTS's position as a leading innovator in next-generation technologies for automotive lighting, including smart multi-beam headlights.
