Greenhouse Roof Whitewashing – Fast, Safe, and Cost-Effective with Drone Technology
Flight speed: 2-4 m/s, Flight height: 2-3 meters above the greenhouse, (working on 1 meter line spacing to get a even uniform coverage paint)
Finish in half a day
“It would take a team of two people a week of hard work to finish, and it would also be dangerous for a person to be on the top of the greenhouse with uneven coverage. With the drone, the whole job was done in less than half a day—it was much safer for the operators and the coating came out perfectly even.”
Greenhouse Roof Whitewashing – Fast, Safe, and Cost-Effective with Drone Technology
This essential task helps regulate internal temperatures and UV levels, creating ideal growing conditions—but traditionally, it required extensive manual labour, time, and cost.
To improve the process, our team deployed the XAG P100 Pro spray drone, delivering precise, uniform coverage in just a few hours of flight time. Equipped with RTK positioning and smart flight path planning, the P100 Pro ensured even application with minimal product waste. Unlike traditional methods, which often involve scaffolding and uneven results, our two-person drone team completed the job safely and efficiently—all in a single shift.
The outcome? A perfectly whitewashed roof, reduced labour costs, improved safety (no ladders or high-risk work), and a significant time saving. The greenhouse operator is now set up for a successful growing season—faster, safer, and more cost-effectively than ever before.
This case showcases the power of precision spraying technology and how drones like the XAG P100 Pro are transforming agricultural operations across Australia.
