SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY THAT WORKS WITH NATURE, NOT AGAINST IT.
CubicFarms’ Crop Motion™ technology gives plants the perfect day, every day because they automatically move in a highly controlled environment. Hundreds of growing trays move under LED lights along a path from the back to the front of the modules, getting the right amount of light, water, and air flow to maximize their growth. The automated, hydroponic growing system uses 95% less water, no pesticides, or herbicides, providing predictable and consistent growing 365 days a year.
Quality produce
Our CubicFarm System provides the perfect climate with the optimal amount of light, nutrients, water, humidity, and temperature in a controlled growing environment; the plants reward you with the most nutritious, delicious, and best tasting fresh leafy greens, herbs, and microgreens, year-round.
Plant health
The movement of the trays causes them to swing back and forth ever so slightly each time the machine stops. This causes the plant just a hint of stress, which mimics conditions outside where there may be wind and movement, thus producing a much heartier plant.
Water savings
During each cycle, unused water is filtered and recycled back into the system, drastically minimizing freshwater consumption vs. traditional farming. To grow a head of lettuce in our CubicFarm System it only takes two bottles of water, compared to 40 bottles of water needed for field farming. The CubicFarm System uses 95% less water than traditional growing methods. Adjustable environmental controls in each growing module only use the amount of water required for each crop, saving millions of gallons of fresh water per year.
Labour savings
With our unique patented Crop Motion technology, the module brings the crops to the operator, requiring a smaller and stationary growing team who can work at a height that is ergonomic and comfortable. There’s no need for scissor lifts, walkways, or awkward bending with the CubicFarm System because the module brings the trays to the front doors for faster planting, growing, and harvesting.
Profitability
A CubicFarm System is a cost-competitive indoor farming solution to address market demand. Our systematic growing programs lower production cycles to as little as 5 to 21 days, depending on desired size and variety of crop. Our systems grow produce with a longer shelf life, helping you to maintain your margins and reduce shrinkage.
Crop scale and configuration
If you are looking for a vertical indoor farming solution that can scale to meet your production goals for individual crops, our modular CubicFarms System is an ideal solution. Consistency and predictable yields are important factors for commercial scale crops. You can use one module to grow several types of produce, altering the configuration as needed.
Crop flexibility
The modules trays and inserts are easily switched out to accommodate a large variety of crops and crop densities to ensure maximum flexibility and productivity.
Land savings
Our current CubicFarm System is up to 52 times more land efficient than field farming.
When compared to traditional field farming, greenhouse growing, or warehouse-based vertical farming systems, a CubicFarm System produces much higher yields on a square foot basis by dramatically reducing the footprint of land used. This allows for easy co-location on existing sites and a much smaller land requirement to grow higher volumes of crops.
Energy savings
Each CubicFarm System was designed for optimal growing. A single row of LED lighting at the top of the module provides all the light and heat necessary, even at -40° in the cold winter months. Our unique Crop Motion Technology™ moves the produce throughout the module, rather than the many rows of lighting required in a typical “rack and stack” vertical farming solution.
No toxic chemicals
Consumers are demanding safe and health food options. Our enclosed growing environment eliminates the need for pesticides or herbicides.
Consistent year-round output
A CubicFarm System will grow fresh produce with consistent colour, size and taste any time of the year and in any environment. Help your business address food security all year round, regardless of the weather outside!
