Future Farming
Quick Plug North America believes that innovation is key to staying relevant in an emerging marketplace.
Increasing demands on a limited land and water supply have led to exciting changes in how we think about growing food. This is particularly relevant in urban areas which have a high density of buildings, many consumers and minimal land suitable for traditional agriculture. Quick Plug North America can work with these farms of the future to develop new products designed to meet the specific needs of indoor farming.
One of Quick Plug North America’s most recent advancements is our newly patented textile, BioStrate® Felt. It is made specifically for growing microherbs, specialty greens and wheatgrass. This lightweight 100% biobased fabric absorbs and retains water while providing an inert environment for dense healthy root development. BioStrate is compostable*. However, it will maintain its structural integrity for the life of the crop. Call us to discuss your specific crop needs.
*BioStrate is compostable under industrial composting conditions.
