Qingdao farmer made new type long span greenhouse Sheng Yongfang, once a Qingdao farmer, established Qingdao Yongnuo Agriculture Machinery Co., Ltd. with his younger brother Sheng Yongcheng in 2005 after he saw the great market potential of a plastic curtain rolling machine. In 2010, the brothers developed double-framework and no-column greenhouse building new tech after 3 months tech problem tackling. “The greenhouse has no column, but long span, anti-strong wind, strong robustness. Its span can be 20 meters. There is no one column in the greenhouse, with anti-scratch framework. High luminousness of the greenhouse surface provides higher temperature. It just takes 1-2 days to build a 3 mu greenhouse, instead of 10-15 days like previously,” Sheng Yongfang said.
The company has obtained 18 national invention patents in double-framework and no-column sectors. Its products havebeen sold to 15 cities and provinces, including Beijing, Hebei, Tianjin, Anhui and Jiangsu. More than 12,000 greenhouses were built, covering an area of 80,000 mu.
