Are you over 21 years of age?
More than 50 years ago, we noticed a tiny plant growing in a piece of abandoned stone wool on a building site. Just as it's designed to do, nature had found a way to grow. And it inspired us to design a system to support it — a smarter, soilless way of growing that we evolve, explore and refine continuously. A system that promises high yields of consistent, high-quality fresh food and medicinal crops to feed and treat the world's growing population.

Growing crops, produce and plants soillessly means growing them reliably. Because both the conditions and the stone wool substrate they're grown in are reliable. Every decision made in the greenhouse today has a major impact on tomorrow's results.
We support our deeply-rooted knowledge with our digital solutions to improve cultivation from root to fruit. As the world's population continues to grow, so too does the need for healthy, fresh food and medicinal crops. Since our soilless way of growing isn't dependent on season or location, it can be done anywhere, anytime, meaning it's reliable and consistent — and high yields can be readily available whenever and wherever they're needed.
Crop consultancy
Since our way of growing is soilless, it supports the human world without depleting the natural one. Meaning more land can be given back to nature to rest and rewild. Whatever the crop, our way of growing protects diminishing water supplies. And the water it does use is recycled and reused — as are the nutrients within it. We know that innovative growers demand innovative solutions, which is why we aim to set new standards.
Our clean stone wool substrate is brought to life by exactly the right systems and software needed to steer the growing process with close, careful precision — for excellent yields of medicinal crops and healthy, fresh food. Reliably high-quality plants that can help tackle many of the world's health issues. Those who work with us, grow with us, collaborating as we explore a purpose-led path together.
One that starts at the intersection of nature and tech. That includes sensors, stone wool and strawberries. Fresh produce, medicinal crops and sharing knowledge. We're a company for people who believe in feeding and treating the human world, without depleting the natural one — a company where everyone grows.
