Surna Cultivation Technologies announces new contract win with Farm.One

Surna Cultivation Technologies, a leading company in controlled environment agriculture (CEA) systems engineering and technologies, and a subsidiary of CEA Industries Inc, has announced it has been awarded an environmental control equipment contract with luxury greens producer Farm.One. Under the contract, Surna will leverage its indoor agriculture climate control technologies and mechanical engineering capabilities to deliver a holistic HVAC system design for Farm.One’s New York-based, vertical farming facility. Surna’s engineering team has already begun working with Farm.One to select and size HVAC equipment that best fit their facility and cultivation goals.

“Urban markets are experiencing growing demand for high quality, farm-to-table produce,” commented Jon Kozlowski, Surna’s Vice President of Sales. “Farm.One is catering specifically to those needs as they cultivate salad greens, specialty herbs, edible flowers and micro greens solely for local markets. These delicate crops require special consideration when designing a cultivation facility, and as the provider of their critical environment solutions, it is our mandate to help bring that vision to life.”

“We supply the highest-quality premium greens to both local fine dining restaurants and direct-to-consumer through a membership program," added Derek Pitts, CEO of Farm.One. "To do this, we must have an environment in which our plants can thrive, deliver daily yield and does not require the use of any pesticides. The years of indoor cultivation experience that Surna brings to the table is invaluable. We are excited to work with Surna in our next growth phase and look forward to a long-term relationship with them.”

Surna previously announced its strategy to expand beyond the cannabis sector into the indoor food production market, pointing out that its existing expertise and equipment offerings can be readily applied in these facilities. Since that time, Surna has designed and provided equipment to a growing list of indoor-ag producers.
