Fluence’s high tech LED lighting boosts Midwestern cannabis growers

AUSTIN, Texas AND ROCK HILL, Mo.

Today, Fluence fixtures illuminate 20,000 square feet of cannabis canopy in Proper’s cultivation rooms, enabling the company to improve plant production and produce a variety of medical products under three unique brands.

“We observed LED lighting trends for years in Colorado, learning about the power and potential of the technology compared to HPS systems, and brought that knowledge back to our home state—the up-and-coming Missouri market,” said Matt LaBrier, COO and co-founder of Proper.

Fluence’s LED solutions also mitigated the heat and microclimate issues growers have historically battled under legacy lighting systems. After completing its successful first harvest, Proper introduced its products to Missouri customers on April 20, 2021.

“The team behind Proper Cannabis is an incredible example of how the cannabis industry continues to evolve, advance and embrace the technologies of the future,” said David Cohen, CEO of Fluence.

Proper also secured more than $500,000 in rebates through its innovative use of LED lighting technology and other facility enhancements.

Fluence is a leading LED lighting supplier in the global cannabis market and is committed to enabling more efficient crop production with the world’s top vertical farms and greenhouse produce growers.

Proper Cannabis is a fully vertical medical marijuana company in the state of Missouri with a vision to lead and inspire our community through the power of cannabis.
