OUR CUSTOMERS
GyroPlant is collaborating with Aquaponics Iberia on their Smart SWIMS (Solid Waste Integrated Management System) pilot project in Portugal. This initiative, approved under the Blue Shuttle program, aims to revolutionise waste management in aquaponics.
Project Highlights:
-
Integrates IoT sensors, AI analytics, and automation
-
Optimises resource efficiency in aquaponics systems
-
Utilises GyroPlant's GyroCup technology for improved seedling processes
João Cotter of Aquaponics Iberia notes: "GyroCups have revolutionised our seedling process—providing an easy, fast, and clean way to start plants while promoting healthier, faster root growth."
GyroPlant is collaborating with RAIZ (Forest and Paper Research Institute) to advance Eucalyptus clonal propagation, a critical focus for the pulp and paper industry. Utilising GyroPlant’s innovative reusable substrate solutions, this partnership aims to improve rooting success rates and reduce environmental impact.
By providing sustainable alternatives to traditional propagation methods, this collaboration supports RAIZ’s research efforts and aligns with broader industry goals of promoting sustainable forestry practices. The application of these technologies is expected to significantly enhance the efficiency and sustainability of tree propagation in the sector.
The Università degli Studi di Torino is pioneering an innovative project under the guidance of Prof. Silvana Nicola at the InHortoSanitas lab. Focused on the cultivation of ginseng sprouts, the project utilizes an Ultra Density Growing System within an indoor farm, employing GyroPlant technology. This approach leverages Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) to standardise and expedite the production of ginseng, ensuring consistent quality and efficiency. The research compares various growing mediums such as rockwool and GyroPlant reusable growing cups, with remarkable success in eliminating substrates. This substrate-free approach simplifies operations and benefits the environment, highlighting the potential of advanced farming technologies. Collaborating with passionate experts like Cosimo Matteo Profico, Fabiana Marino, Saeid Hazrati, and Simona Baracco, the project is making strides in vertical farming, in partnership with the Association for Vertical Farming.
Interstellar Lab, a pioneering biotech startup, is dedicated to building a future full of life, on Earth and beyond. Founded in 2018, the company counts 50 engineers, scientists and researchers located between its flagship BioFactory in Ivry-sur-Seine (France), its SpaceLab at NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration KSC Florida (USA) and its Business Hub in San Francisco (USA). Interstellar Lab were also winners of Phase II in the NASA Deep Space Food Challenge. Their mission is to create harmony between technology and nature, fostering biodiversity and making terrestrial life multi-planetary.Interstellar Lab designs, manufactures, and operates controlled-environment biofarms that combine hardware, AI, and bioscience. Their cutting-edge solutions mimic diverse environmental conditions to enhance the growth of plants, fungi, and microorganisms, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in agriculture.
GROWPIPES is on a mission to make affordable and high-quality local produce. We're proud to support their mission and collaborate on innovative greenhouse and indoor farming solutions.
GyroCup™ is currently being evaluated in Japan for its potential in supporting sustainable crop production in future space habitats beyond low-Earth orbit. Our very own Gil Cauthorn at GyroPlant is working with the University of North Dakota.

Our GyroCup™ holders demonstrates their utility, showcasing reliability in challenging lunar conditions.
SayurKita is dedicated to transforming agriculture and sustainable energy. With innovation and a commitment to sustainability, their mission is to create a positive impact on the planet. Join them on the journey to a brighter, cleaner future.
AHE's GelPonics is an eco-friendly, sustainable growth substrate for plants, replacing traditional materials like stone wool, peat, and coir. This low-carbon, 100% natural, and biodegradable substrate reduce costs and complexity while accelerating cultivation.
PINK FARMS - BRAZIL
The largest urban vertical farm
in Latin America
​
The Pink Farms vertical urban farm creates the
perfect environment for growing the most
natural, freshest produce you've ever come across.
Each species is extensively studied so that
we can provide the perfect conditions for
their happiest growth, with
fantastic flavors and without the use of pesticides.
LettUs Grow - UK
LettUs Grow is an indoor farming technology provider based in Bristol, UK. They believe that careful innovation in farming can make the world a better place. LettUs Grow’s ultrasonic aeroponic irrigation systems allow farmers to grow up to twice as fast as hydroponics, while using zero soil, zero pesticides, as well as less water and fertiliser than in outdoor farming.
The DROP & GROW™ container farm allows anyone to grow local, sustainable food 365 days of the year, whilst Aeroponic Rolling Benches™ are set to bring the benefits of aeroponics to hectare-scale greenhouses and vertical farms.
LettUs Grow conducts world leading research into controlled environment agriculture from their research centre in Bristol, working with partners such as John Innes Centre, Harper Adams University & Agritecture. The team achieved B Corp status in 2022 and are dedicated to improving food systems by working towards a future where affordable, healthy food can be grown with minimal impact on the planet.
FYTO - UK
​
FYTO is a company based in Newcastle, North-West Industry. They manufacture hydroponic units and grow food for the local area.
We started working with FYTO in 2021. They are conducting growing trials with us, to test our product at their farm.
FYTO believes a critical part of the solution lies in a hyper-local food production and distribution model, using hydroponics with artificial light and other modern methods of agriculture to supplant traditional approaches.
This leads to a shift in mindset – food can be grown where it is eaten – in the home, in the restaurant, or just down the road. A re-localisation of food production has many benefits for all in society.
ROKO X FACTORY - GERMANY
Philip Rose from ROKO - "we use GyroCups™ for our very clean in-vitro strawberry cultivation in our research unit xFactory"
'ROKO farming is developing an automated, energy-integrated and high-yield vertical farming system using cutting-edge technologies (AI, robotics, IoT, LED light) to ensure crop production in a more sustainable way.
For ROKO Farming, regionality does not end at the fruit and vegetable stand. In all of our business processes, we focus on short delivery routes and the associated better quality and lower transport costs. With our high level of vertical integration, we are independent of foreign producers'.
GROW IT YORK - UK
Grow It York is an indoor urban community farm in a shipping container, supplying hyper-local produce to the surrounding businesses and communities. It was built to investigate how vertical farming can play a role in creating positive change within our food systems, benefiting our health, environment and economy.
"Because we can control everything within the vertical farm from plant nutrients to lighting, temperature and water, crop yields are very predictable, with short times to harvest, minimal waste, and produce which is highly nutritious. Growing crops all-year-round in cities, closer to consumers, can reduce food miles and the need for chilled supply chains helping lower carbon footprints and improving access to healthy food"
SUSTENIR - SINGAPORE
​
Sustenir grows 100% clean superfoods. Our delicious, highly nutritious leafy greens are grown all-year round regardless of climate, free of pesticides and external pollutants. Sustenir’s vision is to nourish people and planet, one leaf at a time. We build smart vertical farms at the heart of demand in urban populations to minimise carbon footprint whilst maximising impact in local communities.
