This partnership ensures that growers in these regions now have access to local technical support for all Growcoon-related processes\u2014further safeguarding operational continuity. The agreement was officially signed during GreenTech 2025 at the RAI Amsterdam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Growcoon<\/strong><br>For those not yet familiar: Growcoon is a fully biodegradable plug holder for cutting and seed propagation. This innovative mesh not only enhances growing quality and performance but also enables full automation of both planting and transplanting processes\u2014making it a promising step towards more efficient, labour-saving cultivation on a large scale. In recent years, significant investments have been made to automate every aspect of the Growcoon system. Today, Growcoon stands as a robust and future-proof cultivation concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But just as crucial as the product and its equipment are service, support, and the availability of technical know-how and spare parts. In short: the guarantee that everything works\u2014and keeps working. That\u2019s exactly the role Powerplants will take on in the Australian and New Zealand markets. The partnership means Powerplants will exclusively expand its portfolio with Growcoon equipment, becoming the first technical point of contact in the region. Their involvement will be key to the further rollout of Growcoon and, with that, to driving sustainable and high-efficiency cultivation practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s precisely this shared ambition that brought the two companies together. Powerplants delivers automation solutions for large-scale horticulture, helping to advance high-tech and sustainable plant production. And that\u2019s a vision fully aligned with the goals of Maan Horti Automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Edwin Kruiper of Maan Horti Automation shares his excitement:<br>\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to welcome Powerplants as our partner.
