Together with Argus, we are able to provide clients with a customized controls solution that will enable them to achieve their goals,” said Hydrofarm CEO Peter Wardenburg.

Michael Heaven, vice president and general manager for Argus added, “Since 1984, we have been designing controls systems for greenhouses and indoor growing so we understand the complexities of plant growth facilities and how to control growing environments.”
