Horticulture

The UK’s leading and most experienced drone shading and cleaning contractor

Agricultural drones are increasingly becoming the go-to method for shading and cleaning greenhouses and polytunnels.

HighVantage provides a professional and efficient drone service across the UK, helping growers and greenhouse operators diligently maintain their glasshouses to maximise optimal growing conditions.

Glasshouse Shading

Shading is a critical component in horticulture helping protect crops, optimise growth, and improve efficiency.

For the past 18 months, HighVantage has delivered a smarter, safer, and faster shading service across the UK compared to traditional methods — significantly reducing health and safety risks, application time, and operational disruption.

We have the knowledge and experience to apply a range of specialised shading products tailored to each customer’s needs, from heat and light reduction to light diffusion and spectrum adjustment — helping optimise glasshouse conditions, improve plant health, and maximise crop yields.

1% loss of light = 1% loss of productivity

We use a combination of advanced spray drones and ground-based cleaning equipment to deliver fast, effective glasshouse cleaning — taking care of a task every grower dreads.

Operated entirely from the ground, the XAG P100 Pro applies cleaning agents directly to the glass, eliminating the need for personnel to work at height. This results in greater speed and accuracy, while minimising disruption to crops, day-to-day operations, and glasshouse infrastructure.

Alongside drone cleaning, we also offer ground-based cleaning for glasshouse side panels. This ensures maximum light transmission during darker months and maintains a clean, professional appearance year-round.
