The vertical farming industry has rapidly grown over the last several years, leading the way in sustainable and innovative methods for traditional agriculture. These hydroponic systems offer a unique controlled environment for crops, ideal for various sectors including commercial farming, cannabis cultivation, research, and urban agriculture. Daily tasks such as monitoring nutrient levels, adjusting environmental variables, and ensuring optimal conditions for plant growth are crucial for maintaining product health and quality. With so many critical factors to continually monitor, companies may wonder how to undertake upgrades and improvements to their production lines.

  1. Ensure you ‘re using durable components!
    Keep in mind the environment of the system: temperatures, moisture levels, light, plant growth and decay, etc., it is important that you use components that ensure durability and resilience in any weather. NIKO Conveyors Systems are equipped with zinc-plated components. For environments with specific corrosion concerns, our stainless-steel options guarantee longevity and reliability. 
     
  2. The solution should be designed for YOUR NEEEDS & environment
    One size does not fit all in Vertical Farming. Customized solutions are important for maximizing efficiency. Investing in a tailored overhead conveyor system is critically important to the production’s function and budget. Whether you opt for manual, hand-pushed conveyors, or automated transportation, the solution should be designed to seamlessly integrate with your daily operations. 
     
  3. Energy-Efficiency + Labor Savings = ROI
    A standout feature of our Conveyor Systems is their contribution to energy efficiency. Providing smooth, ergonomic, and top-safety features, our conveyor systems significantly reduce the physical strain on manual labor. Furthermore, investing in automated conveyor systems translates to savings in both time and energy costs, allowing business to channel their resources where they matter most.

  4. Quality Control and Certifications
    NIKO ensures quality through rigorous ISO 9001 and ISO:14001 standards, and EN 1527 certification. Our experienced engineers conduct statistical process control during production. Our test lab is equipped with durability test stands, tensile stress machine, hardness test machine, salt spray test chamber, and more.
