We're in a growing partnership with Evogro

State of the art kitchen tech

Evogro are at the bleeding edge of kitchen and food technology.

Our AI monitored hydroponic growing cabinets demonstrate our commitment to adopting revolutionary technology for the improvement of our culinary practices.

Sustainable growing

Every herb and leaf we grow is one we don’t have to buy. 

Not only does that mean drastically fewer food-miles, but Evogro cabinets are designed to be highly efficient growing environments, cutting down on water, nutrient, and energy waste.

Perfectly fresh, organic produce

We harvest our fresh produce only when it’s needed.

Since we’re in control of how we grow on site we can guarantee not only that produce is as fresh as it gets, but that it’s not been treated with harmful chemicals, herbicides or pesticides.

Hydroponic growing trays

In a perfect soil all the elements are present in the right concentrations and ratios, but this is often not the case, and nutrients can be rapidly depleted by growing plants. 

Hydroponic systems like Evogro do not require soil – instead the mineral elements are dissolved in water and this nutrient solution is then supplied to the plants roots.

Evogro cabinets have been designed to make the most of this technology using an automated feed-on-need system to ensure every plant gets exactly what it needs, when it needs it, and not a drop more. That massively reduces waste water and nutrient run-off.

Active spectrum management

Different plant varieties have different light requirements and each plant’s requirement changes as it grows. 

Evogro Active Spectrum Management® technology ensures that each plant gets exactly the right amount of the right wavelengths of light.

From red, to pink, to blue to no lights on at all, the Evogro system automates the lighing schedule to get the most growth out of our plants, while using the least possible energy to do it. 

Realtime plant monitoring

Each Evogro cabinet is fitted with multiple sensors and up to 24 high definition cameras. 

Sensor data and images are captured throughout the day and transmitted to the Evogro Cloud where the data is analysed. 

By using image processing and machine learning algorithms we can effectively monitor the growth of every crop and automatically program each shelf in each cabinet so every crop gets exactly what it needs to grow best.

The best of nature and the best of technology.
