Re-Nuble is a unique indoor farming company that produces vegan, organic, water-soluble hydroponic nutrients for plants using food by-products and fully-recyclable growth media. The company's proprietary technology, called organic cycling science, creates a closed-loop system through an organic nutrient supply chain. Food waste is processed to extract nutrients, which are then returned to the food chain. This process continues until a small percentage of a food's solids no longer have any value.
The closed-loop system produces competitively-priced nutrients compared to less sustainable commercial options. Re-Nuble also certifies its sustainability by calculating a farm's water savings, carbon footprint reduction, and other emissions-related data. The company's goal is to empower communities to cost-effectively grow organic food using local waste streams to meet the increasing demand for food by 2050. Indoor farming and sustainable nutrient sources can increase agricultural efficiency and save resources such as carbon and water.
