In the heart of Grasse, a town often hailed as the world's perfume capital, a revolution in sustainable cultivation is taking root. Robertet, a global titan in the realm of natural raw materials, has taken a pioneering leap by becoming the first in the fragrance and flavor industry to embrace the BioPod, a creation of the visionary biotech startup Interstellar Lab.

“Imagine a world where cutting-edge technology intertwines seamlessly with nature, offering the finest natural products for an industry that treads lightly on our planet,” commented Jerome Bruhat, the visionary CEO of Robertet. This is the future Robertet envisions with the BioPod in Grasse.”

The BioPod isn't just any greenhouse. Stretching 11 meters in length, 5 meters in width, and towering 6 meters in height, this deployable marvel offers a sprawling 100m² of meticulously controlled growth space. But its true magic lies beneath its transparent skin. Originally conceived for NASA, this terrestrial adaptation operates in a semi-closed loop, mirroring nature's own water cycle and absorbing ambient CO². Sunlight filters through its membrane, reducing the need for artificial illumination. Within its walls, a symphony of sensors and artificial intelligence work in tandem to recreate specific climates, allowing for the cultivation of high-value plants and ingredients in a manner that's both sustainable and replicable.

Julien Maubert, the mind steering Robertet's Raw Materials Division and the Interstellar project, shares the excitement. “Our partnership with Interstellar Lab is not just a collaboration; it's a journey into the future of aromatic plant agronomy. The BioPod's capabilities are nothing short of remarkable, and we're eager to harness its potential to reshape our industry.”

This groundbreaking venture complements Robertet's 14 dedicated research and creation centers, each a testament to the company's unwavering commitment to exploring the vast tapestry of natural ingredients. As the world stands on the cusp of a sustainable future, Robertet and Interstellar Lab are leading the charge, one BioPod at a time.

“Our alliance with Robertet, a beacon in the world of natural ingredients, is a testament to our shared dedication to preserving Earth's biodiversity,” noted Barbara Belvisi, the force behind Interstellar Lab. “The BioPod is more than a tool; it's our answer to the industry's call for an ecological transition, using technology as a bridge to nurture life.”
