Gases of Life District

Vision

We shape the future with vision and innovation, exploring the infinite possibilities of gases: welcome to the era of the gases of life.

The District is a highly specialized and innovative laboratory, at the forefront of research on gases and their biological properties applied to the agri-food, medical, environmental, and metrological sectors.

Agrifood

In the agri-food sector, the District develops innovative solutions to enhance crop sustainability and reduce food waste.
By using specially formulated gas mixtures designed to stimulate plant growth and extend the shelf life of products, the center helps make the entire agricultural supply chain more efficient and responsible.

Research activities focus on the interaction between gases and the biological processes of plants, aiming to deliver tangible benefits in terms of both yield and quality. This approach combines scientific expertise with advanced technologies to address the challenges of modern agriculture.

Automated Production

A significant part of the District is dedicated to the automated production of special gas mixtures.
The robotic facility autonomously manages the entire filling process. These mixtures can consist of many components and are prepared with custom compositions based on user specifications.

The gases present in the atmosphere have important effects on the biology of living organisms, humans, animals and plants. The aim is to understand how these gases, as their concentrations vary, interact with plant or animal cells in order to obtain beneficial effects. To this end, the centre collaborates with institutions and research centres active in the medical and agricultural fields. In recent years, in collaboration with a leading research institute, a mixture has been developed that has important protective effects at the neuronal level following ischaemic events. Other mixtures have increased plant growth, while others have increased the shelf life of fruit and vegetables.
