Austranna’s facility in South East Queensland is a pioneering example of advanced medicinal cannabis cultivation. This strategic location offers unique benefits that align perfectly with our innovative approach to growing medicinal cannabis.
Solar-Powered Sustainability in a Subtropical Climate
The facility is classed as a Hybrid-Indoor Glasshouse, and leverages South East Queensland’s abundant sunshine, harnessing solar energy to power a significant portion of our operations. This use of renewable energy is in sync with the region's long sunshine hours, reducing our reliance on non-renewable power sources and significantly lowering our carbon footprint. The subtropical climate of the area provides an ideal external environment, enhancing the efficiency of our solar-powered system.
Advanced Control in a Natural Setting
The facility design allows us to create a meticulously controlled cultivation environment, essential for producing high-quality medicinal cannabis. While enjoying the natural light and warmth from Queensland’s climate, our facility can regulate internal conditions to ensure optimal plant growth. This combination of natural and controlled factors results in a more sustainable cultivation process, minimising the need for artificial inputs while maximising plant health and product quality.
Strategic Location for Market Accessibility and Talent Pool
Positioned near Brisbane and other large urban centres, our facility enjoys easy access to key markets and a skilled workforce. This proximity enables efficient distribution of our products and allows us to tap into a pool of talented professionals, essential for running a high-tech cultivation operation like ours.
Cultivating Innovation and Community Ties
In line with Queensland’s supportive stance on the medicinal cannabis industry, our location fosters opportunities for innovation and collaboration. We engage in partnerships with research institutions and industry experts, driving advancements in cannabis cultivation and processing. Furthermore, our presence in South East Queensland goes beyond business operations; it’s about embedding ourselves in the community, supporting local economies, and practising environmental stewardship.
Environmental and Social Responsibility
Our facility’s design and location reflect Austranna’s commitment to environmental and social responsibility. By utilising solar energy in our Hybrid-Indoor Glasshouse, we set a standard for sustainable practices in the industry. Our approach in South East Queensland is a testament to our dedication to being a responsible and innovative leader in the global medicinal cannabis market.
