According to Grand View Research, the global indoor farming market is “expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 12.9% from 2023 to 2030." While that expansive growth rate does include cannabis cultivation, much can also be attributed to the vertical farm segment's burgeoning demand for eco-friendly fruit and vegetable production.
Specifically tailored for this segment, indoor grow racks have emerged as a game-changer for modern farmers striving to enhance productivity while maintaining eco-friendly practices.
Scaling up production within confined spaces demands specialized conditions, including precise lighting and controlled environments. Enter the GROW Mobile System—a robust solution designed to address the unique needs of vertical farmers.
Eliminating wasted aisle space and allowing multiple levels of growing area, the GROW Mobile System helps create a better place to work and grow by improving efficiency, maximizing space, and reducing energy use.
The Indoor GROW Rack, an integral part of the GROW Mobile System, allows farmers to maximize their cultivation area by optimizing their available space. A high-density mobile storage system eliminates wasted aisle space, reaching up to 30 feet tall and 60 feet long and allowing for two, three, or even four tiers of growing area.
This optimization translates into a higher crop yield per square foot, reducing costs per plant and boosting overall profits. Efficiently utilizing vertical space helps farmers achieve more with their existing infrastructure.
Efficiency is the cornerstone of modern farming, and the GROW Mobile System ensures just that. Its streamlined design prioritizes accessibility to every plant without the need for excess aisle space. The introduction of the GROW Crosswalk option further exemplifies the commitment to efficiency.
Cultivators frequently engage in prolonged work with plants situated above the ground, often using ineffective and risky methods. The GROW Crosswalk offers an improved approach to plant care and aisle utilization. This available add-on solution provides a safe and secure way to access second-tier or higher-level plants, maximizing efficiency and minimizing labor time and effort.
Safety and comfort are crucial to the success and longevity of any workplace, and farming is no exception.
The GROW Mobile System integrates advanced safety features like anti-tip rail technology, welded uprights, and user-activated safety locks. And, as the interface between rails and racking, ergonomic three-spoke handles allow staff to safely and simply move thousands of pounds with minimal effort.
These features mitigate workplace accidents and create a comfortable working environment, boosting job satisfaction among farm workers.
Every vertical farm comes with a degree of plant and space diversity, and the Moveable GROW Rack offers customization options to align with your specific requirements.
Its adaptability allows universal mounting bracket flexibility and improved airflow through large openings. This versatility ensures that the system can cater to various crop types and cultivation setups, offering tailored solutions to meet individual farmer needs.
