Our Technology

Our systems allow you to make more product - faster, cheaper, and with minimal workers.

The next generation of cannabis businesses will rely less on facility size or head count and more on advances in automation, artificial intelligence, and process control. Unlike traditional equipment manufacturers, Xylem employs the most advanced technologies to break production bottlenecks that unlock additional value for your company.

Our Promise

No matter how much we grow and evolve as a company, we’ll always be driven by four essential principles to deliver the industry’s most advanced autonomous technology.

Iteration

Many Xylem personnel operated in the cannabis industry and understand market dynamics—we iterate products over time to meet new customer and market needs.

Efficiency

Autonomous operations are more efficient, optimizing labor use while increasing both operating margins and asset utilization.

Reliability

That’s why we build our solutions to be efficient and serviceable and to operate in even the most demanding conditions.

Adaptability

Our tailored solutions are easy to integrate across an array of resins and multiple states, fit many companies, and are simple to maintain.
