About Us

The main products are the Waterboxx® plant cocoon and the Growboxx® plant cocoon.

The Waterboxx® plant cocoon which is made by high quality Polypropylene (plastic) can be used up to 10 times. A new tree needs 9-12 months to be developed, and following that, while the protection is not required, the Waterboxx® plant cocoon can be removed and use it again. We can plant trees with 90% less water, in comparison for example with a drip irrigation system, achieving at the same time survival rates of more than 90%.

A variation of the Waterboxx® plant cocoon, which is developed to service broader needs, is the biodegradable Growboxx® plant cocoon made by recycled paper and can be used only once after servicing its aim.

The low cost compared with its “plastic brother” makes it suitable for the following cases:

  • We can plant in sandy areas
  • We can plant in burnt forests
  • We can plant in rocky areas and mountains
  • We can plant at deserts
  • We can plant in eroded terrains
  • We can reforest hundreds of hectares, maintaining low cost including the laboring.

All the above while achieving high survival rates of more than 90%, providing at the same time 4 positions for planting small bushes or vegetables

Benefits of the Groasis Ecological Water Saving Technology

The Groasis Ecological Water Saving Technology is the only technology that allows you to plant a productive tree with 4 vegetables at the same time, or a native tree with 4 shrubs / flowers while saving water

  • The production of vegetables in combination with the productive tree helps the planter to generate income with which he can pay the box and produce food to consume; the productive tree is a positive “remnant”;
  • Planting a native tree with 4 shrubs / flowers drastically reduces the costs of ecosystem restoration projects. Normally, ecosystem restoration projects plant approximately 1,100 trees per hectare, of which 20% survive. The 220 trees that remain must fight to survive. If a planter plants 250 trees with the Growboxx plant cocoon, with 4 shrubs / flowers on each tree, 90% will survive. This means that 225 native trees will grow quickly. The planter also has 900 shrubs / flowers. In total, he has 1,125 pioneer plants that will soon colonize the area. The Groasis Ecological Water Saving Technology offers a higher survival rate of trees, shrubs and flowers, combined with a drastic reduction in costs compared to traditional planting methods.

Groasis Ecological Water Saving Technology allows year-round planting of any plant, in any location, in any climate, with 90 to 95% survival rates and on average 30% faster growth

  • Plants any soil; also on rocks; even above the tree line;
  • Year round planting; no matter how hot; or how cold;
  • Year round planting means year round equal labour flow necessity;
  • Optimum use of nursery because there is no peak period planting;
