Overview
Distributors and growers who need steady, year-round supply close to the buyer: hot or cold climates, islands, cities, mines, camps, and livestock farms that need green feed in the dry season.
Recirculating water
A pump circulates nutrient solution through the root zone and back to the tank, so unused water is reused rather than drained.
Automatic control
Lighting, irrigation and climate run on set schedules and set points, with less manual checking.
Lower water and fertilizer use
Closed-loop irrigation delivers nutrients to the roots and returns what isn't used.
Ships as a complete unit
Container formats are built and tested in the factory and travel as standard shipping containers.
Vertical, multi-tier layout
Stacked tiers multiply growing area on the same footprint.
About plant factories
A plant factory replaces the weather with equipment. Multi-tier racks, LED grow lights, air conditioning, dehumidification, CO₂ dosing and a recirculating nutrient system run inside an insulated box, so the crop sees the same day every day.

Ask a questionWhat is the minimum order for the Vertical PLC Hydroponic Forage Container?
The minimum order quantity is 1 piece. Larger orders and mixed orders with other Mars Vertical Farm products can be combined in one shipment; ask for a quotation with your quantities.
Can it be customized?
Yes. Dimensions, configuration, voltage and packaging can be adapted to your project. We confirm the specification and drawings with you before production starts.
What warranty is included?
The standard warranty is 1 year from delivery, covering manufacturing defects. Spare parts and remote technical support are available after the warranty period.
How is it packed and shipped?
Equipment is export-packed in cartons, pallets or wooden crates according to size, and shipped from Shanghai by sea, rail or air. Quotations can be made EXW, FOB Shanghai or CIF your nearest port.
What crops can a container plant factory grow?
Container and indoor plant factories are best suited to short, compact crops: lettuce and other leafy greens, herbs, microgreens, strawberries, sprouts and hydroponic fodder such as barley. Mushroom cabins use a different climate profile for oyster, shiitake and similar species. Tall fruiting crops like tomatoes are usually better in a greenhouse.
What utilities does a plant factory need on site?
Every unit needs a stable electrical supply, clean water and a level base. Power demand depends on the lighting area and the cooling load for your climate, so we size it per project and state the voltage, phase and frequency in the quotation. Most sites also want internet access for remote monitoring.
