3Dponics Inc. is an Ottawa-based tech lab that develops 3Dprintable parts and customizable hydroponics systems for the home and garden industry. The 3Ddesign files are free and accessible across 3D-printing marketplaces for open-source collaboration.[1]

Background

3Dponics is based on the idea to use an open sourced hydroponics system that can grow fruits, veggies and flowers in a small space using 3D printable parts and recycled materials.[2] The printable parts of the hydroponics system include Sprinkler head, clips, conduits and nozzles and are downloadable from the company’s website.[3]

3Dponics provide an online community service, where members can share and post pictures and videos of their hydroponics systems.

In 2015 3Dponics launched 3Dponics Customizer app to allow MakerBot users to design 3D printable hydroponic gardening tools and change the shape, size, and orientation of a number of 3Dponics printable hydroponic planters.[4][5]

Awards

  • 3Dponics Inc. was awarded Most Successful Application of 3D Printing by IDTechEx in April 2015.[6]
  • 3Dponics Inc. was awarded One of the top 10 greenest gadgets at the International CES 2015.[7]
