Hydroinvent

Italy: Soil-less solutions as a hobby as well as for furnishing and design
Hydroinvent was created by Stefano Sergiani, an enthusiast of the soil-less cultivation technique, in combination with a company that produces metal, plastic and mechanical works and another that designs furnishing for shops and trade fair stands.

This unusual interaction created an innovative and dynamic company that aims at spreading soil-less cultivation in Italy thanks to its small terraces and domestic greenhouses as well as furnishings such as wall and table elements.

Not only does Hydroinvent manufacture the products, but it also tests them and publishes the results on its website. After-sales assistance is also available in the blog area.

Hydroinvent aeroponic systems are produced using ducts made with a non-toxic material, an extruded tubular structure made with anticorodal aluminium and a made in Italy submersible pump. All of the products have to pass quality and productivity tests before they are placed on the market.

Hydroinvent plants are modular and expandable. They are usually equipped with 1 to 2 metre ducts, however they can be cut to any requested measure. The number of pots and their diameter can also be customised. 

Hydroponic NFT systems are easy to use, reliable and require minimum intervention. The nourishing film technique leads to great results especially with salad and strawberries.

A good alternative is also represented by the RTW system which, thanks to its 1.7 litre pot, is suitable for plants with bigger roots such as raspberries, tomatoes, aubergines and peppers.
