Transform Waste into Life
PlaHealth Ltd pioneers sustainable urban agriculture through innovative mobile plastic kitchen gardens. We recycle plastic waste into productive growing systems, fighting malnutrition while protecting our environment.
About PlaHealth
Revolutionizing Urban Agriculture & Waste Management
Our Mission
At PlaHealth Ltd, we believe every plastic bottle has a second life as a source of nutrition. Our mission is to combat two critical challenges facing Rwanda and the world: plastic waste pollution and food insecurity.
Our Vision
We envision an Africa where every household has access to fresh, homegrown vegetables, and where plastic waste is transformed from an environmental burden into a solution for healthier living.
Our Impact
Through our innovative mobile kitchen gardens, we empower families to grow their own nutritious vegetables while actively participating in environmental conservation. Each garden we deliver represents plastic removed from our ecosystem and fresh food added to African tables.

🌱 Our Smart Kitchen Garden Innovation
How the Automatic Watering System Works
Our mobile kitchen garden uses smart soil-moisture technology to water plants only when needed, saving water, time, and effort.
🔁 Step-by-Step Process (Simple Explanation)
Soil Moisture Detection
A moisture sensor is placed inside the soil to continuously check how dry or wet the soil is.
Real-Time Data Reading
The sensor sends soil moisture information to a small controller (microcontroller).
Automatic Decision Making
When the soil is too dry, the system automatically turns ON the water pump.
When the soil reaches optimal moisture, the system automatically turns OFF the water pump.
Smart Water Distribution
Water flows through a drip or fountain irrigation system, evenly watering all plants.
Optional Smart Lighting (Platinum Model)
Energy-efficient LED lights support plant growth and allow gardening even in low-light conditions.
