Integrating more jungle and edible plants into the urban metabolism will promote more sustainable behavior of the conscious consumer in the urban area. Citizens will be able to learn to grow plants by participating and being much closer to their farmers and nature also in metropolitan areas again.
Aponix takes standard horticulture equipment to the 3rd dimension enabling a new generation of urban champions to grow more hyperlocal plants and add more jungle to urban areas. Modularity, versatility and being able to go 3D in a creative and robust way is always key to this new category of urban horticulture equipment positioned at the confluence of commercial horticulture and green urban infrastructure.
In late 2021 aponix added a modular living WallSystem to their range of soilless solutions (vertical barrel / 3D-NFT) to also cover indoor and outdoor verticals as integral part of buildings including farming setups.
All components are considered infrastructure elements that can be creatively used to create diverse solutions for edibles and also general urban vegetation. The components cover a surface like shingles on a roof handing and retaining liquid through multiple levels. Plants are held separate in removable pots for simple maintenance.
