OUR AMBITIONThe Next Generation of GrowingPlantLab wants to make an impact on how the world is fed. We develop and operate custom-built indoor farms that we call 'Plant Production Units' (PPUs) worldwide. These PPUs require fewer inputs than conventional / organic farms and provide our growing world population with fresh produce that is safe, affordable, tastier and more nutritious.OUR PROMISELocally grown, global benefitsOur hyper-local, resource-efficient indoor farms can be swiftly replicated in key distribution areas. This means we can grow fresh produce near the consumers and distribution centers at a scale that matches local demand. We can do this irrespective of climate, location, season and time of the day, and without the environmental costs of traditional farming.OUR OFFERINGThe freshest produceWith our complete closed harvest and supply chain system we can bring fresh produce within 24 hours from harvest to store. This prevents loss of nutrients and flavor, whereby our produce has superior flavor profiles, nutritional value, and outstanding quality compared to any other product on the market.OUR GUARANTEEReliable and cleanAt PlantLab, we aim to provide the purest produce possible: we use non-GMO seeds and our closed growing environment ensures that the crops are not susceptible to pests and diseases, eliminating the need for pesticides. Additionally, our products and PPUs regularly undergo strict food safety controls to avoid food borne diseases.ABOUT USThe Next Generation of GrowingAlready since the early nineties, we want to make an impact on how the world is fed. Merging our knowledge on plant physiology with mathematical models and state-of-the-art technology has led to our first indoor farm-prototype in 2005. In the years that followed we improved the prototype, resulting in our ‘Plant Production Units’ (PPUs) as we know them now: completely closed growing environments that create a ‘Plant Paradise®’ for crops by optimizing and controlling all natural growing conditions. We incorporated PlantLab in 2010.
