About Sprout Systems
Sprout Systems AG is a Swiss company that produces medical cannabis using a patented aeroponic cultivation method. The two-storey closed-loop cultivation system avoids fluctuations during growth phases and enables a natural product that meets the standards of an industrially manufactured medicinal product: consistent active ingredient content, pharmaceutical quality, microbiological purity and a reproducible standard. Microbiological purity is checked and confirmed during the production process by a medical laboratory, so subsequent cleaning via irradiation is not necessary. For packaging and manufacturing, the company works with established partners from the healthcare sector and relies on a high degree of automation. Since 2025, a licence for the cultivation of cannabis for medical purposes has been in place. The company is headquartered in Klingnau (AG), with a further site in Windlach (ZH).
