On August 5, 2009 Valcent Products, Inc. issued a press release announcing that their first full scale VertiCrop™ High Density Vegetable Growing System is now operational. Constructed as a joint venture with Paignton Zoological and Environmental Park in South Devon, the final touches to the system have now been completed.
It is further expected that over the course of the next three months over fifty potential commercial customers for VertiCrop™ will visit the Paignton site to see the system in operation. Representing interests from the Middle East, Asia, Australasia, North and South America as well as Europe, the viability of the system to produce vegetable crops in many different environments will be fully assessed and the Valcent team anticipates a full order book for the VertiCrop™ system by year end.
