Belgian vertical farming company founded 2014, manufacturing automated indoor growing containers and plant factories with LED lighting and hydroponic.
Urban Crop Solutions is a Belgian engineering company for controlled plant production, based in Waregem, West Flanders, and founded in 2014 (it was previously named Urban Crops). It builds indoor growing systems that combine controlled climate, LED lighting, and fertigation, and it describes its approach as a lifecycle from feasibility and engineering through build, commissioning, and support.
Its product lines are the farming systems FarmFlex, Fodderflex, ModuleX, and ModuleV, plus installations for foodtech and bio-ingredient production, speed-breeding rooms, and research facilities such as growth chambers and FarmLabs. In February 2016 the company opened a demonstration plant factory in Waregem that used robots, guided by RFID-tagged crates and software, to move crates of plants between a conveyor and an eight-layer climate chamber.
Reference projects listed on its website include a double ModuleX farm for Modern Farms in Saudi Arabia, a spectrum-controlled LED and fertigation installation for Inalve in France, a 720 square meter speed-breeding facility for Inari in Belgium, and sunlight-plus-LED hybrid growing towers for the research center Inagro in Belgium. Customers span commercial farming, foodtech, plant breeding, and research.
