Plant Factory

We cultivate crops reliably year-round in enclosed facilities, fully shielded from outside environmental conditions.

FACTORY TYPES

Two Types of Plant Factory

We offer two solutions — container-type and building-type — tailored to your site conditions and business goals.

CONTAINER

Container Type

Because the container itself serves as the exterior shell, it can be installed freely even on non-farmland. Its modular design delivers outstanding mobility and scalability.

BUILDING

Building Type

A building-type plant factory cultivates crops, quite literally, inside a building. With no concern for outside weather, it remains unaffected by natural disasters such as typhoons, floods, and droughts.

FACTORY DETAIL

Detailed Features by Type

FACTORY TYPE 01

Container-Type Plant Factory Modular · Relocatable · Fast to Build

CONTAINER

Product Overview

Using the container as its exterior shell, this modular plant factory can be installed relatively freely even on non-farmland and relocated as needed. An AI automation system delivers an optimal cultivation environment fully isolated from outside conditions.

Key Features (6)

  • Flexible relocation and installation — Because the container serves as the exterior shell, it can be installed relatively freely even on non-farmland and relocated as needed. Its ‘modular design’ makes building the farm fast and convenient.
  • Complete environmental control — Plants are fully isolated regardless of outside climate conditions. Light, temperature, humidity, and more are precisely controlled with cutting-edge energy technology and an AI automation system. Shielded from the outside environment, it produces vegetables continuously all year round, independent of the seasons.
  • High-quality, high-value produce — Because plants grow in an optimized environment, high-quality crops are produced in large volumes. It is also well suited to producing high-value-added produce.
  • Resource savings and greater efficiency — Based on the AI system and sensor data, a smart irrigation system prevents water waste and uses only as much fertilizer as needed, making wise use of resources. Operating costs are reduced by 15–20%.
  • Reduced labor and faster decision-making — The automated system lowers labor demand, and sensor data provides crop-status updates that enable prompt decisions.
  • Clean cultivation environment — Shielded from outside contamination and pests, it produces more hygienic and cleaner produce.

Ideal Applications

Operators who want to quickly install a plant factory on non-farmland such as city centers, rooftops, logistics centers, or research facilities, or who run businesses that may need to relocate, or who want modular, expandable operations.

FACTORY TYPE 02

Building-Type Plant Factory Enclosed Building · Urban · Vertical Multi-Tier Cultivation

BUILDING

Product Overview

A building-type plant factory that cultivates crops inside an enclosed building. In an environment completely isolated from outside weather disasters and pollution sources, it reliably produces produce of uniform quality all year round.

Key Features (4)

  • Completely safe from the outside environment — A building-type plant factory grows plants, quite literally, inside an enclosed building, so there is no concern for outside weather. Unaffected by natural disasters such as typhoons, floods, and droughts, it also produces clean crops safe from fine dust and pesticides.
  • Farming even in the city — One of its biggest advantages is that it can be built inside high-rise buildings in major cities. Cultivating crops close to the city center greatly reduces the transport costs of bringing produce in from afar.
  • Consistent, high quality — Because plants are grown in a fully controlled environment, crops can be planned and produced reliably all year round. Since every plant grows in the same environment, high-quality produce of uniform quality can be produced.
  • Excellent space efficiency — In a high-rise building format, plants can be cultivated on multiple floors at once. Far larger volumes of crops can be produced even in a small footprint, making the most of the city's limited space.

Ideal Applications

Urban direct-supply food businesses, direct supply to hotels, restaurants, and institutional catering, B2B produce businesses requiring large-scale, fixed-quantity regular shipments, and food-security hub infrastructure.

COMMON ADVANTAGES

Shared Advantages of the Plant Factory

Six core values both types share in common — shielding from the outside environment plus automation for consistent year-round production.

01

Flexible Relocation & Installation

Freely installed even on non-farmland by the container, and relocatable as needed

02

Complete Environmental Control

Plants fully isolated regardless of outside climate. AI automation with cutting-edge energy technology for light, temperature, and humidity

03

High-Quality, High-Value Produce

Growing plants in an optimized environment produces high-quality crops in large volumes. High-value-added produce is possible

04

Resource Savings & Greater Efficiency

A smart irrigation system based on the AI system and sensor data. Uses only as much fertilizer as needed

05

Lower Labor & Faster Decisions

Crop-status updates via the automated system enable prompt decisions. Minimizes labor burden

06

Clean Cultivation Environment

Shielded from outside contamination and pests to produce more hygienic, cleaner produce

URBAN AGRICULTURE

A New Standard for Urban Agriculture

J-ONE's plant factory produces crops steadily without being affected by changes in the outside environment, enabling predictable and reliable crop production. Cultivating crops close to the city center also reduces the loss of freshness and the carbon emissions that come with transport.

Crops Possible with a Plant Factory

  • Leafy greens (lettuce, kale, arugula, spinach, etc.)
  • Herbs (basil, mint, rosemary, etc.)
  • High-value medicinal plants
  • Some fruiting vegetables such as strawberries and tomatoes

Areas of Application

  • Direct food-supply operations (hotels, restaurants, institutional catering)
  • Urban farms and experiential spaces
  • Regional food-security hub infrastructure
  • Educational plant factories for schools and institutions
