Material Construction | Urban farms, disaster relief | Steel container (ASTM A36 grade) ▲ Polypropylene racks (ISO 9080 compliant) | High durability for harsh environments Lightweight racks reduce structural load | Higher upfront cost compared to plastic-only systems |
Lighting System | Indoor vertical farms, commercial growers | LED panels (120 μmol/m²/s PAR) ▲ Adjustable spectrum (400–700 nm) | Energy-efficient growth optimization Customizable light for plant stages | Requires electricity for 24/7 operation |
Energy Efficiency | Off-grid locations, eco-conscious farms | Industry Standard: Standard HVAC (1.5 kW/h) Our Base: Improved insulation (1.2 kW/h) ▲ Our Advanced: AI climate control (1.0 kW/h) ▲▲ | Reduced energy costs by 20–30% Lower carbon footprint | Advanced version requires IoT infrastructure investment |
Modularity | Disaster relief, scalable operations | Stackable design (ISO-certified containers) ▲ Plug-and-play expansion | Rapid deployment in emergencies Easy scalability for growing operations | Requires flat terrain for optimal stacking |
Water/Nutrient Management | Water-scarce regions, hydroponic farms | Our Base: Automated drip system (50 L/day) ▲ Our Advanced: Smart irrigation (40 L/day + sensors) ▲▲ | Water savings of 20% (Advanced) Real-time nutrient monitoring | Sensor maintenance adds operational complexity |
Temperature Control | Tropical climates, year-round farming | Passive cooling (±2°C accuracy) ▲ Active HVAC (±0.5°C accuracy) | Maintains ideal growth conditions in extreme heat/cold Reduces crop loss | Active systems increase energy consumption by 15% |
Compliance & Safety | Global markets, regulatory compliance | RoHS/CE-certified components ▲ Fire-resistant lining (ASTM E84 Class A) | Meets EU/US safety standards Reduces fire risk in enclosed spaces | Certification costs may raise base model pricing |
