Sealed Greenhouse Systems for Commercial Growers
The SunChamber™ combines natural sunlight with precision indoor controls in a fully sealed environment, delivering higher yields, lower risk, and year-round consistency. By eliminating exposure to pests, pathogens, and contamination while significantly reducing energy costs compared to traditional indoor grow facilities, it offers a more efficient path to controlled environment agriculture. Designed for commercial and research applications, the SunChamber™ provides the precision and reliability that serious growers demand.
What Is a Sealed Greenhouse System?
The SunChamber™ is a controlled environment greenhouse that operates as a fully sealed system, allowing growers to precisely control every aspect of the plant environment while still utilizing natural sunlight.
Traditional greenhouses depend on ventilation, exposing crops to external conditions. Indoor grows eliminate that variability but at a high energy cost.
The SunChamber™ bridges the gap.
By combining a sealed structure with integrated environmental systems, it delivers:
- indoor-level control
- greenhouse-level efficiency
- consistent, high-quality yields
*The SunChamber™ is defined by its sealed environment and its systems. Layout choice will depend on engineering, site, considerations, budget, climate, etc.
How the SunChamber™ System Works
The SunChamber™ is not a collection of components, it is a fully integrated system.
Sealed Envelope
A controlled structure isolates the growing environment from external conditions, preventing contamination and instability.
Integrated HVAC + Dehumidification
Temperature and humidity are actively managed without venting, maintaining ideal plant conditions at all times.
Sunlight Optimization
High-performance glazing captures full spectrum natural light.
Centralized Controls
All systems are synchronized, including:
- CO₂ enrichment
- irrigation + fertigation
- lighting + shading
- airflow and pressure
The result is a stable, repeatable growing environment.
Why The SunChamber™ Outperforms Traditional Grow Systems
Key advantages:
- Maintain full control without sacrificing sunlight
- Eliminate external contamination risks
- Reduce dependency on artificial lighting
- Achieve consistent production cycles
The SunChamber™ eliminates the tradeoff of control with an indoor grow and efficiency with a greenhouse.
Built for Performance, Consistency, and Scale
Precise control over climate and inputs allows crops to reach optimal performance.
Support Compliance & Quality
Designed to meet the needs of GMP environments, pharmaceutical production, and research facilities
Achieve Year-Round Consistency
Produce reliable, repeatable crop cycles regardless of external climate
Reduce Risk
A sealed system minimizes pests, airborne pathogens, and environmental variability
Designed for Advanced Growing Operations
The SunChamber™ systems are used across:
- Controlled environment agriculture (CEA)
- Pharmaceutical and biotech production
- University research programs
- Nursery and propagation facilities
A Fully Integrated Growing System
Every SunChamber™ includes tightly coordinated systems:

Sunchamber™ FAQs
The SunChamber™ is a sealed Grow Facility that uses either the EcoLoop™ geothermal system or EcoPack™ system for HVAC and dehumidification, and the Ceres SunSense™ controller. The SunChamber™ combines the light harvesting capabilities of a greenhouse with the control of an indoor grow room, allowing for the highest yields and precision production.
While the vegetables would love this environment. It is usually not necessary nor cost effective to employ a fully sealed greenhouse for commercial vegetable production. A vented Ceres greenhouse with smart controls can still provide precise grow conditions which is more than sufficient for commercial agriculture.
We offer a customized quote specific for the needs of each operation. We therefore ask that you reach out and let us know a little more about your project so that we can provide you with the most accurate estimate for your needs.
Yes, expansion is possible. If you are thinking about future add-ons it is advisable to notify Ceres from the beginning so that our engineers can plan sizing for the total size of water systems and electrical. Engineering for a full build is undertaken at the beginning of the project, so that way we never have to backtrack if a future expansion is required, saving time and money.
The SunChamber™ requires three-phase power to power some of its systems. It is certainly possible in some situations to run this system off-grid and our team will help with the design of the power supply system.
