Harke UK & Ireland have presented ICSC's latest advances in sustainable ingredient innovation. Through Precision Climate Farming, ICSC grows plants in controlled environments without soil, pesticides, or synthetic chemicals. By carefully regulating light, water, and temperature, this method ensures faster growth, higher concentrations of phytoactives, and consistent quality. The process is well certified (ISO 9001:2015, EFfCI, Kosher) and aligned with a zero-waste strategy, giving formulators peace of mind on both sustainability and performance.
Compared to conventional cultivation, ICSC's Precision Climate Farming uses 80% less water, runs entirely on renewable energy, and delivers ingredients with exceptional purity and stability. For personal care brands, this means access to natural actives that combine efficacy, traceability, and environmental responsibility.
Microgreens are nutrient-rich seedlings harvested just days after germination. They are packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and phytoactives at levels often higher than their mature plant equivalents. Beyond nutrition, they bring sensory appeal with unique aromas, textures, and colours.
