Coco fiber and walnut shells for greener indoor spaces

We’re excited to share that Vegger has been featured in an article on Vertical Farm Daily! The article highlights our mission to create greener indoor spaces using sustainable materials and innovative vertical farming solutions.

 

Below is an excerpt from the feature:

“When most people think of vertical farming, images of plastic pots and packaging often come to mind. We are changing that perception with our biodegradable PlantPods, which offer a sustainable alternative to traditional growing containers,” explains Paulien van de Vlasakker, CEO of Vegger. These all-in-one solutions allow individuals and businesses to grow fresh vegetables and herbs without relying on plastics.

“What makes these PlantPods unique is their use of agricultural byproducts, such as coco fiber and walnut shells. These materials provide a nutrient-rich base for plant growth, while also helping to reduce agricultural waste. Instead of relying on petroleum-based plastic, the PlantPods are natural and biodegradable, reducing the overall environmental footprint of indoor farming systems.”
