Smart Gardening for a Healthier Planet
“Craterpot doesn't just improve on the old standard, it has the potential to replace it.”
Prevents Root Binding: Craterpot’s dual-partition system and radial layout guide roots outward and downward in a natural pattern. This eliminates the coiling and tangling typical of root-bound plants in standard pots, promoting healthier root development.
Optimised Root Interface (ORI): Craterpot’s internal partitions form a proprietary anomaly that increases the root-to-wall contact surface area. This gives roots greater access to moisture and oxygen, dramatically improving nutrient uptake compared to conventional pots.
Dual Wet-and-Dry Zones: Craterpot creates two distinct growing environments in one container — a moist inner chamber and a drier outer zone. This makes it ideal for a wide range of specialist plants, including those that require both conditions simultaneously.
Air-Filtered Reservoir: The design functions as a natural air filter, separating the internal water reservoir from the external environment. It allows oxygen exchange while automatically blocking contaminants, keeping water fresh and usable for months — even years — without stagnation.
Supports Unique Plant Varieties: By replicating natural soil moisture levels, substructures, and aeration patterns, Craterpot creates a stable environment for native plants and delicate species. It’s especially effective for water-dependent varieties that are often difficult — or even impossible — to grow in traditional containers.
Reduces Water and Nutrient Waste: Craterpot’s internal water retention system minimizes runoff, splashing, and evaporation. This conserves valuable resources while maintaining optimal growing conditions.
Hydroponic Ready: Craterpot has now been successfully tested in hydroponic cycles demonstrating that Craterpot is not only ideal for soil-based growing, but perfectly adaptable to simple, low-cost hydroponic systems too. One tiny pump could support thousands of Craterpots in rotation — offering scalable food production with ultra-low input costs in even the poorest of societies.
Don’t be mistaken — Craterpot may look like a traditional plant pot, but that’s where the similarity ends. Its familiar shape and one-piece design make it just as practical and affordable as any conventional pot. But on the inside, subtle, intelligent upgrades make a world of difference for plants. These refinements work in harmony with nature, enhancing root health, overall viability, and species versatility — allowing more types of plants to thrive in a single device than ever before — all while promoting long-term sustainability.
For the first time in 10,000 years, Craterpot has given the world its first true “plant” pot.
