Revolutionizing farming with innovative small-scale VF system

The company's flagship product, a compact vertical farming system, offers a groundbreaking approach to growing herbs, salads, flowers, and select vegetables. Remarkably, this system fits neatly within the dimensions of a double-door refrigerator, requiring less than a single square meter of floor space. The system's potential is further underscored by its ability to yield approximately 300 pots of fresh produce every month.

Unveiling a Fusion of Technology and Sustainability

This pioneering system encompasses every aspect needed for optimal plant growth, including state-of-the-art LED lights, a precision irrigation system with nutrient and pH regulation, and efficient ventilation. Automated to perfection, this technology marvel requires minimal input from the user. Pre-seeded trays are simply inserted, and within 30 days, fully grown, harvest-ready plants emerge. This system not only offers unparalleled convenience but, more importantly, embodies the essence of sustainable and resilient food production.

Amidst a backdrop of rising global temperatures, devastating wildfires, and erratic weather patterns, the company's solution resonates strongly. By growing produce at home or within the community, individuals and businesses can become more resilient to climate disruptions. The act of growing what you consume holds the promise of enhancing food security and reducing the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transportation.

A Triumph of User-Friendly Excellence

Comparative data speaks volumes about the system's efficiency. While traditional growing methods can be time-consuming and resource-intensive, users of this small-scale vertical farming system require just an average of 21 minutes per month to operate it. The result? Over 300 pots of nutritious, pesticide-free produce, cultivated right at home or within the workspace.

Notably, this revolutionary solution also boasts the highest yield per square meter among its small-scale vertical farming counterparts. This efficiency is not just economic; it's environmental. In collaboration with the Swedish Environmental Institute (IVL), the company's systems have undergone life cycle assessments, demonstrating up to a 50% reduction in kgCO2eq compared to conventional greenhouse or imported produce.

A Sustainable Future in Every Aspect

The drive for energy efficiency also takes center stage. At a time of escalating energy prices, the vertical farming systems are a beacon of energy-conscious innovation. Peak energy consumption can be adjusted to low-demand hours, aligning with sustainable energy usage while reducing costs for the user and minimizing strain on energy grids.

Behind this revolutionary endeavor are founders with an impressive track record in developing and operating vertical farming systems. The same minds responsible for one of Europe's largest vertical farms, inaugurated in Stockholm in 2018, are now channeling their expertise into a compact system accessible to all. This innovation is more than just a solution; it's a commitment to democratizing sustainable, fresh, pesticide-free food year-round.

Serious Industry Backing

With over 100 units sold to industry leaders including Electrolux, Sodexo, Compass Group, Scandic, Volvo, Geely, Northvolt and H&M the company's small-scale vertical farming system has earned the trust of serious B2B clients. The system is hailed for its seamless integration into diverse business environments while embodying a holistic commitment to sustainability.

Looking Ahead

As the world demands more accessible and efficient food production, the company is readying itself for another groundbreaking stride. The development of a more compact, affordable farming system, launching in January 2024, marks the dawn of a new era. This innovation will further widen the accessibility of this groundbreaking solution, enabling not only B2B giants but also households to partake in the transformative journey of sustainable food production.

In a world yearning for innovative solutions, this Swedish food tech company stands at the forefront, leading the charge towards a more sustainable, resilient, and food-independent future.
