Groasis

About us

Groasis is a socially active and environmentally conscious company from the Netherlands. In 2003, the company was founded by Pieter Hoff. Pieter used to be a lily breeder and also an importer/exporter of flower bulbs. He traveled across the globe for his work and saw that many problems arose in different areas. For example, his clients complained about the declining groundwater level deforestation and that there were more eroded and dry areas than ever before. In addition, almost all of his customers used drip irrigation to water the flowers.

Not only the solution had to be found for the dry, eroded and derelict areas. The growing water shortages in the world also had to be considered. The UN says 700 million people in 43 countries already suffer from water shortages.

We use about 60 to 85% of the freshwater for agricultural purposes. We need this water to drink and use for purposes other than agriculture. In addition to the water shortages in the world, the world population is growing steadily. Will there be enough water in the future to produce food for everyone?

Groasis has developed the tools to plant trees, bushes, and vegetables on dry and degraded land. Our intelligent buckets (the reusable Waterboxx and the biodegradable Growboxx) have been used to successfully plant millions of plants in 56 countries around the world. Our users report a unique Triple Ninety Benefit of 90% less water required, 90% lower cost, and still achieving a 90% survival rate. The growth speed of the plants also tends to increase by on average 30% - ranging from 10% to 300%!
