Cultivation takes place within The Plant production sites, high-tech greenhouses that recreate the ideal environment for growing vegetables.
Here, special filters purify the incoming air of pollutants and return oxygenated air to the outdoors, making the facility a true green lung for the environment.
Our productions sites
A patented technology
Two types of systems to which misting tanks are connected can be located inside the greenhouses: the static Aerosmart system (patent No. IT102018000010260) and the dynamic Aeromatic system (patent application No. IT102019000024180)
Growing plates placed on the tops of the tanks house the plants, which, as soon as they are ready, will be transported from the production hub to the point of sale.
The maintenance systems
Thanks to the display and storage modules developed by Agricooltur®, products remain alive until consumed.
The root is never severed, and the vegetable can be harvested shortly before its use, keeping taste and organoleptic properties intact.
MICROHORTUS
Compact and modular micro-greenhouse
With MicroHortus units, with a compact design resembling a small greenhouse, products can be displayed in any context and in any space. MicroHortus is a modular element that can be displayed alone or alongside other elements depending on the available space.
The system is designed to allow plant roots to stay hydrated while keeping the exposed plants alive.
Specifications:
Display capacity: 12 products - Display size: 44 cm (width) x 34 cm (depth) x 54 cm (height) - Weekly water consumption: minimum to maintaining root hydration

AEROFRESH
Il sistema per esporre e nutrire le piante grazie alla nebulizzazione programmata
The Aerofresh module allows plants to be fed through programmed misting. Aerofresh elements can be displayed individually or side-by-side with other elements depending on available space. The display can be personalized by a stainless steel nameplate. Aerofresh is a modular element that can be displayed alone or side by side with other modules depending on the available space. The misting system inside the display unit allows the roots to stay hydrated, keeping the exposed plants alive.
Specifications:
Display capacity: 3 plates - Display size: 71 cm (width) x 50 cm (depth) x 227 cm (height) - Annual system power consumption: 50 kWh/year approx. - Weekly water consumption: 10 l approx. - Power supply: 230V - Electrical panel with controller for managing misting cycles

MINIHORTUS
Indoor cultivation modules with static fertigation system
MiniHortus units, modules with a static manual fertigation system, expand on the MicroHortus design and meet the needs of larger rooms by providing storage for more products. Unlike the MicroHortus, these systems go up to accommodate four plates with a minimum capacity of 12 products each.
Specifications:
Display capacity: 4 plates - Display size: 120 cm (width) x 80 cm (depth) x 80 cm (height) - Weekly water consumption: about 50 l - Power supply: 230V

HORTUS
The transportable urban cultivation form
The structure consists of a suitably modified last-life container set up to house two Aerosmart growing systems. In order to provide the natural lighting necessary for plant growth, the module walls are partially replaced by compact polycarbonate panels, and the roof by honeycomb polycarbonate panels.
