Botalys has developed a vertical farming technology that enables the production of rare plants and high-value ingredients for the food supplement, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries. This approach allows the cultivation of highly bioactive medicinal plants that are challenging to grow using traditional methods.

The first plant produced using this technology is Panax Ginseng. Remarkably, the roots grown with Botalys’ method contain 10-15 times more valuable ginsenosides than those cultivated in the natural environment, and can be harvested in just 4-5 months, compared to 4–5 years in open fields. Additional plants are currently in development.
