Inspired by Nature, Nucleário is a reforestation solution that is designed to be used in remote and hard-to-reach areas. Currently, 17 million hectares of the Brasilian Atlantic Rain Forest are unproductive and abandoned. Traditional forest restoration approaches in remote areas are logistically complex and expensive, requiring manual work and periodic visits to be successful. The Nucleário is designed to be installed manually or deployed from the air into degraded areas, helping seedlings grow without requiring human maintenance. Made of biodegradable materials, it ensures that seedlings survive by providing a barrier from ants, collecting water, and protecting against invasive species. The Nucleário in use reduces the agrochemicals and insecticides in the plantations, improving soil and water quality. Riparian forests and mountain tops forest restoration are vital for the sustainability of rivers, watersheds and water quality resources.
Long Description
Inspired by winged seeds, bromeliads, and forest leaf litter, Nucleário is a reforestation solution that is designed to be used in remote and hard-to-reach areas of the Atlantic rain forest. Currently, 17 million hectares of the Atlantic rain forest are unproductive and abandoned. Traditional forest restoration approaches in remote areas are logistically complex and expensive, requiring manual work and periodic visits to be successful.
The Nucleário is designed to be installed manually or deployed from the air into degraded areas, helping seedlings grow without requiring human maintenance. Made of biodegradable materials, it ensures that seedlings survive by providing a barrier from ants, collecting water, offering shade, and protecting against invasive species.
The Nucleário in use reduces the agrochemicals and insecticides in the plantations, improving soil and water quality. Riparian forests and mountain tops forest restoration are vital for the sustainability of rivers, watersheds and water quality resources.
The Nucleário Plant System improves the working conditions of the planting teams, by simplifying the arduous task of planting in degraded areas and reducing the seedlings mortality rate. With the forest growth, the population consequently benefits from the environment improvement in water and air quality, in addition to live surrounded by natural beauty.
Seeking to transform the Nucleário concept in a real product, we are developing and testing prototypes at the real environment aiming to validate the product functionalities. Analysing the temperature, soil moisture, water accumulation and bio-interactions, we are improving the Nucleário design towards to a minimum viable product launch.
