About Us
LEDs are producing revolutionary advancements in many areas of technology and life, but none more so important than in Horticulture. The complexities and knowledge required is growing daily, with different plants requiring different spectral illumination and control.
Intelligent Horticultural Solutions (IHS) was formed in 2017 to support the development of products in the fast moving and exciting area of LED lighting. We have brought together key horticultural LED manufacturers, leveraging their 20+ years of experience in general LED lighting in order to offer development platforms and custom growing solutions.
IHS is part of the Intelligent Group Solutions (IGS) group of companies founded in 2001 which operate from the head office in Thatcham, Berkshire. Sister divisions specialise in a variety of opto and mainstream electronics distribution, design as well as prototyping and assembly services. The horticultural specialism has evolved, due to market demand in the LED division, Intelligent LED Solutions (ILS).
Other IGS divisions include:-
Intelligent Display Solutions (IDS)
Established in 2001, IDS was the founding division in the group specialising in custom design and distribution of LCDs, TFTs and OLED technologies. IDS’s expertise in display technologies means the team can design and manage a project from conception to the delivery of the display, front panel assembly or the end product to anywhere in the world.
