AIR

 

Our heating system gather carbon dioxide (CO2) from the boilers and uses it as gaseous fertilizer.

Through photosynthesis, CO2 is absorbed by the plants, producing better crops and releasing oxygen (O2) into the environment.

SOIL

 

Our cultivation is hydroponic and we use coconut fibers.
Upon finishing its productive cycle, the bags containing coconut fibers, organic matter and fertilizers are reused to make compost and soil enhancers.
