Markets

Growth through innovation in food, medicine and cosmetics.

Our vertical farming facilities are more than just a new method of cultivation: they are the blueprint for regenerative, local and controlled plant production, which plays a central role in a wide variety of markets. Vertic Greens' system contains top-class technology, is fully developed and has been tried and tested in industrial applications. It is ready for expansion into the food, medicine and cosmetics sectors – markets where responsibility is becoming the new currency.

Food: freshness anytime and anywhere

As the population grows, the demand for fresh, sustainably grown produce with high nutritional quality increases, while conventional cultivation is becoming increasingly unpredictable. Vertical farming enables predictable plant growth with consistently high quality in any location.

Ultra-local production

Indoor farming systems make ultra-local production a reality. Lettuce, herbs and microgreens are produced almost directly at the point of sale. This reduces supply chains to hours instead of days, lowers transportation emissions and makes sustainable nutrition affordable.

First-class food safety

As production takes place in a fully controlled environment, no pesticides and other chemical additives need to be used at all. Vertic Greens makes it possible to have a guaranteed harvest that meets the highest hygiene standards and eliminates the risk of contamination.

Taste & nutrient optimization

By precisely controlling the light, nutrient solution and climate, secondary plant substances, vitamins and aromas can be purposefully optimized, for an end product that’s superior in taste and nutritional value.

Nutrition that promotes health

Thanks to individual nutrient optimization, the end plant products are suitable for following a balanced diet or as a safe medical supplement.

Medicine: a new standard

The requirements for raw materials for medicines, food supplements and phytopharmaceuticals are extremely high, as they directly influence patient safety and the efficacy of the end product. Vertic Greens facilities create a new tier of process and quality control.

Pharmaceutical precision

Vertical farming facilities enable Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) for plants that are used as starting materials for medicines. Every variable – temperature, nutrients, light – is precisely documented, controlled and made so that it can be reproduced.

Standardized bioavailability

For herbal medicinal products (phytopharmaceuticals), having a constant concentration of the active ingredients is crucial. We ensure that the harvested biomass has the exact chemical signature required, batch by batch.

Stable supply chains

Local and closed production protects against crop failures, political instability and contamination in global supply chains, ensuring that raw materials that can have an impact on health stay reliably available.

Cosmetics: sustainability on trend

The cosmetics industry is increasingly looking for sustainably sourced, pure and effective ingredients. Our vertical farming systems deliver these reliably, and in predictable quantities too. The global cosmetics market is experiencing strong growth and showing exceptional resilience, even in difficult times.

Controlled potency of active ingredients

Special light recipes and precisely defined growth conditions make it possible to standardize and significantly increase the concentration of valuable secondary plant metabolites in medicinal herbs or rare species. Each batch has guaranteed, consistent quality.

Protecting rare or endangered species

Wild harvesting of rare plants can damage ecosystems, but commercial quantities of such plants can be grown sustainably and ethically in Vertic Greens facilities.

Free from environmental contaminants

In contrast to traditional cultivation, products from vertical farms are guaranteed to be free from heavy metals, microplastics and other environmental toxins – a decisive benefit when it comes to premium natural cosmetics.
