🌿 The Baromate : nature and productivity in the office
What if nature could become part of your daily work life ? The Baromate is an indoor aquaponic aquarium that transforms any workspace into a living, productive ecosystem. More than just a vegetable garden, it's a design object that combines team well-being, environmental commitment, and the production of fresh edible plants. Imagine your colleagues picking basil, coriander, or mint for their infusions or salads, right at their workplace, a simple gesture that creates moments of connection and relaxation in the heart of the day.
🐟 A self-sustaining ecosystem, without constraints
The Baromate operates on the principle of aquaponics : fish, plants, and bacteria live in symbiosis within a closed-loop system. The fish produce nutrients, the plants absorb them while purifying the water, and the water returns to the fish : zero watering, zero chemical fertilizers, zero pesticides. Ornamental fish add life and color, while the growing tank accommodates up to 10 edible plants on the Large model. Minimal water consumption (30 L/month Large, 15 L Small) and reasonable electricity consumption (200 W/day Large, 80 W Small) make it a cost-effective and reliable system for continuous professional use.
🛠️ "Cocooning" installation and maintenance
Made in the Île-de-France region, the Baromate is delivered and installed by the Aura Aquaponics team. A simple power outlet is all it takes to get started, in under an hour. Afterward, the "cocooners" visit every two weeks to care for the plants and fish, adjust the nutrient balance, and harvest the ripe produce. In case of any issues, intervention is possible within 24 hours. This turnkey service completely frees up your team : you can enjoy the Baromate without having to worry about it. Available in two sizes to suit all spaces :
- Grand Baromate : 2 × 1.5 × 0.25 m, up to 10 plants
- Little Baromate : 1.2 × 0.8 × 0.4 m, reception/relaxation areas
💼 The CSR ally of modern businesses
The Baromate is more than just a gadget : it's a strategic tool to showcase your CSR commitment. It reduces stress, fosters team cohesion (shared foraging breaks !), and raises awareness about ecology and urban agriculture. You can even organize plant-based cooking workshops with your employees. With an affordable monthly rental plus installation (€750 for the large unit, €500 for the small), it offers a quick ROI in terms of well-being and brand image. Ideal for head offices, open-plan offices, break rooms, schools, or local authorities.
