KAPPA AgTech

Founded in 2021 by Schuyler Milton, a patented inventor with graduate degrees in Biomedical Engineering and Engineering Management, KAPPA AgTech, LLC develops technology to enhance sustainability in agriculture. The company emerged from a research pilot farm to address core challenges in Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA).

KAPPA AgTech's business model centers on designing, sourcing, and selling specialized equipment for the CEA sector. The company serves a range of clients, from small-scale farms to large commercial operations, providing customized solutions to meet their specific needs. Its primary revenue is generated through the sale of its proprietary products and consultancy services aimed at optimizing energy flows in indoor growing spaces.

Key products include Ventilated Lighting technology, designed for energy efficiency and high PAR delivery, and the innovative Silicone Substrate™. This reusable substrate permanently replaces disposable growing media like peat, rockwool, and coco coir, reducing waste and eliminating a common vector for pests and diseases. The silicone material is inert, making it suitable for USDA Certified Organic facilities. KAPPA AgTech's products are designed for various hydroponic and aeroponic applications in both greenhouses and vertical farms.
