Twelve years of aquaponics. One craft.
Founded in Yokohama in 2014, AQUPONI has designed and delivered aquaponic farms from its first year: 70+ commercial systems for hotels, schools, developers, and enterprises across Japan.
A production system that connects what used to sit apart.
Aquaponics circulates more than water. Built into an existing business, it also puts energy, people, and information to work.
Resource circulation
Farming and fish farming used to be separate industries. Joined, they waste less energy and less nutrient.
Stable food production
Water and nutrients are used more than once. Steady output without the environmental cost of intensive farming.
Smart agriculture
Indoor growing is easy to measure. Data from the growing floor lowers risk and lifts quality in any climate.
Composite business
It pairs well with tourism, food service, education, and employment programs, and it keeps food production in the city.
United States
Aquponi is setting up in the United States, starting with California and Hawaii. There is no US installation yet. What exists is twelve years of engineering in Japan and a team set on building the first US sites to the same standard.
Early US projects work directly with the Japan engineering team, who design, size, and start up every system. In return, those sites' results go into the published research record.
Buyers comfortable being early get direct access to the same engineers.
Team
One team designs the system, builds it, trains the people who run it, and watches it afterwards. That is why the research record exists: the people collecting the data are the people who have to live with it.
Engineering, research, and remote monitoring are in Yokohama, at Aquponi Inc. (Japanese site). Every system, including US ones, is designed there.
US site assessment and project coordination run from California. That team is new and deliberately small: its job is to get the first US sites right.
You talk to the engineers. There is no sales layer in between.
