This week we are recognising one of our microbiology laboratory technicians, Sam Eates, for his 3-year anniversary here at Zayndu Ltd. Head of Biology, Alberto Campanaro, says “Sam has always been a great and key member of my team. His improvement in the last few years has been amazing, both from a quality and precision perspective as well as the […]
Bigger, faster growing crops, better flavour and up to 7x more yield with zero agrichemicals is just a few of the reasons why Zayndu’s unique cold plasma technology has been shortlisted for the Food and Drink section of the upcoming LeicestershireLive Innovation Awards.
Growers hit by energy increases could increase productivity with a novel seed treatment. Results from Zayndu show yield increases of 10 – 27% in yield of herb and salad crops and more rapid germination following treatment with its cold plasma systems.
Vertical farming is attracting record investment, according to a recent report, with technologies such as Zayndu's cold plasma seed treatment system that are directed at producing more per unit of space and reducing the time to harvest – crucial to its success.
Globalisation has created an increased risk for plant health, with the potential for transportation of pests and diseases on fresh produce and seeds. London is to host the World's first International Plant Health Conference 21-22nd September 2022 which will look at current and future plant health challenges and how to facilitate safe trade.
Together with so many across the country and beyond, we at Zayndu feel a deep sense of loss and sadness at the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and offer our sincere condolences to the Royal Family.
As energy costs increase will Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) be able to compete with open field cultivation? This is a question often asked, but potentially the wrong question as it assumes that vertical farming is in direct competition with broadacre cultivation. This is one of the issues that will be discussed at the CEA event hosted by University of Plymouth.
As agri-tech start-up Zayndu looks to scale up its cold-plasma chemical-free seed health system it has appointed Andrew Neil in the new role of Head of Engineering to lead product development.
Amaranth is susceptible to the fungal disease Anthracnose. Treatment with cold plasma removed 100% of seed-born fungi and boosted germination rate and consistency.
We are taking the Z10 cold plasma system to the Seed Meets Technology 2022 event in Seed Valley; the centre of the Netherlands' plant breeding and seed technology activities
Zayndu will be on stand 05171VF at GreenTech Amsterdam June 14-16th to discuss benefits of priming and disinfecting seed with Zayndu cold plasma treatment systems
Ten percent more plants from the same number of seeds, faster germination, healthier plants and 25% more fresh weight at harvesting – by using ‘plasma agriculture’ to clean and prime the seeds in one operation, the new Zayndu systems have been shown to increase productivity in Vertical Farms.
Successful customer evaluations have brought forward the launch of Zayndu’s cold plasma systems, which uses activated air to disinfect seeds without water or chemicals.
Creating healthy growing environments without the use of chemicals will be one of the hot topics at the event Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) 4.0 2022, one of the largest events in the calendar for vertical farming and indoor farming.
Zayndu’s innovative use of ‘activated air’ as a seed cleaning alternative to chemical treatments has earnt the company nominations for two awards at the upcoming Insider Made in the Midlands awards night, set for Thursday 26 May 2022.
Venturefest West Midlands is an opportunity for entrepreneurs, investors and innovators in the vibrant West Midlands business community to meet, engage and exchange ideas. It provides a showcase for science and emerging technologies, and so provides a great opportunity for Zayndu to bring the potential of its plasma agriculture to a wider audience.
Heritage seeds could be grown commercially in vertical farms if the final source of disease - the seed - can be cleaned effectively with Zayndu's plasma tech
Zayndu earned an award for Innovation in Manufacturing and Engineering at the glittering LeicestershireLive Innovation Awards 2022, for its plasma-based seed cleaning technology.
We’ve seen some amazing results, treated seeds have resulted in significant reductions in infections, improved germination rates, higher yield and reduced losses,” says Dr Katie Wilkins, Vertical Future
Keeping the controlled growing environment free of pests is critical to a successful vertical farming and a major source of potential contamination is seeds. Zayndu has developed the world’s first ‘activated air’ technology to offer seed disinfectant without the use of chemicals or water. It is a silver sponsor of the Global Vertical Farming Expo (GVFE 2021) a virtual event on 1-2nd December 2021.
We are proud to supply systems to PlasSeed, a research programme led by Loughborough University and Royal Holloway University of London that brings together experts in plasma technology, seed biology, and commercial seed processors.
We're very proud to have been awarded a significant UK grant with our partners, Vertical Futures and NIAB (the UK's National Institute for Agricultural Botany)!
With a significant expansion in the bio-lab, we realised we didn't have enough space for all the equipment; and that being upstairs in a building where the elevators are smaller than a bio-safety cabinet wasn't sensible. We'd carried enough incubators up the stairs, and so it was time to move on!
