Ecosphere Technologies, Inc. introduced the Ecos GrowCube(R). Made in America from aircraft-grade aluminum, the Ecos GrowCube(R) is a fully-automated 'greenhouse' that utilizes hydroponic growing techniques in order to maximize the amount of crop production possible in a given footprint. Eliminating the need for soil, pesticides and conventional toxic chemicals, the Ecos GrowCube(R) offers commercial and residential farmers the opportunity to grow a wide range of crops in a fully automated and controlled environment virtually anywhere.

Designed to grow high-grade organic crops in a secure, computer-controlled environment, the Ecos GrowCube(R) incorporates Ecosphere Technologies' patented Ozonix(R) water treatment technology in addition to controlling various inputs (including humidity, CO2, leaf and root temperature, bacteria control, LED light cycles, nutrient levels, etc.), which allow growers to increase the maximum yield possible and grow chemical-free crops. Unlike retro-fitted shipping containers, the Ecos GrowCube(R) comes in a variety of sizes and can be custom made to order with a number of options for the specific crop being grown. Additionally, the Ecos GrowCube(R) utilizes Ecosphere's proprietary, on-board Atmospheric Water Generator (AWG) that produces its own pure, clean water that is free of municipal chlorines, chemicals and trace pharmaceuticals that have detrimental effects on crop growth and production.

The Ecos GrowCube(R) allows growers to grow product locally and closer to distribution outlets to effectively backwards-integrate, enabling them to capture the maximum profits available across the entire value chain (growing, distribution and retail).
