University of Minnesota Partners with Intek for Hydroponic Research

Intek is excited to be collaborating with the UofM on an innovative hydroponic growing study.

About the Research: led by assistant professor Nathan Eylands, this study focuses on the nutritional differences in plants grown at varying distances from the hydroponic fluid source within varying lengths of NFT channels, up to 40 feet. The results could significantly alter our understanding and methods in hydroponic farming.

Hydroponic ResearchAt Intek, we are dedicated to pioneering advancements in indoor agriculture. That’s why we’ve provided our IntekGrow state-of-the-art extended-length rollable, convertible NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) channels for this research. Unlike traditional channels, which are limited to 20 feet or less, our innovative rollable channels can be transported easily and cut onsite to any length, transforming the possibilities for indoor farming. Intek produces custom extruded plastic channels and components for indoor agriculture. We offer a wide range of materials, including our new .

We are excited to share the insights and updates from this transformative research.
