About BerlinGreen
GreenBox GmbH (brand BerlinGreen) develops and manufactures smart indoor gardens for herbs, salads, microgreens, mushrooms, flowers and fruit. The GreenBox (8 plants) and GreenBox Plus (3 plants) automatically supply plants with full-spectrum LED lighting and an optimized watering program and can be controlled via app (iOS/Android). The body is made from renewable materials — deliberately instead of aluminium, sheet metal or plastic — and every GreenBox is assembled by hand. The range also includes PlantPlugs, prepared as substrate blocks, plus services such as GreenBox-as-a-Service for corporate customers, on-site setup service and repair in our own workshop. Target groups are private customers (consumer/lifestyle) as well as B2B corporate customers in the field of urban farming for office and workplace. Product design and development come from Berlin, and manufacturing takes place locally in Europe in cooperation with a network of employees, suppliers and engineers in the EU. Headquarters are in Teltow near Berlin (Rheinstraße 10 C, 14513 Teltow).
