Techmark

What Techmark does

Techmark, Inc. is a privately held agricultural engineering firm founded in 1989 and headquartered in Lansing, Michigan. The company designs, distributes, and services computerized ventilation and climate control systems that integrate fans, humidity, CO2, and heating/cooling technology to deliver precise environmental control for post-harvest vegetable storage (potatoes, onions, carrots) and indoor cultivation facilities, with particular specialization in mushroom production and composting. Its core technology platforms are Stor-Trac, a real-time monitoring and control system for storage environments, and Spor-Trac, a parallel platform tailored to mushroom and specialty crop facilities — both providing telemetry, remote control, team coordination, and alerting. Supporting the core platforms is a hardware portfolio spanning controls, sensors, fans and exhaust, humidification systems, variable frequency drives, actuators, refrigeration systems, and Impact Recording Devices (IRD), plus professional services for system design, installation, airflow testing, facility reviews, specialty crop consulting, and training.

The company's revenue model is a mix of custom hardware system sales, professional services (engineering, installation, contracting, maintenance, training), and recurring software subscriptions tied to the Stor-Trac and Spor-Trac platforms. Pricing is quote-based with no public tiers, reflecting a B2B enterprise sales motion built around custom-designed solutions. Techmark reaches customers through a global dealer and distributor network (with named partners in the USA, Canada, Italy, and China) combined with direct field sales by its own engineers and technicians, and supplements demand generation with industry trade show presence, downloadable technical collateral, and curated industry-resource content. End customers are commercial agricultural producers — primarily vegetable growers and mushroom producers — operating facilities where environmental control directly affects crop quality, shelf life, and post-harvest losses; the company claims a customer base spanning North America, Europe, the Americas, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and Asia.

Techmark operates as an independent corporation with no disclosed parent company, external investors, or public listing, and has not announced funding rounds, acquisitions, or leadership changes in the available record. Its strategic posture emphasizes deepening specialization in post-harvest and controlled-environment-agriculture applications, broadening the Stor-Trac/Spor-Trac software footprint atop an expanding hardware catalog, and extending international reach through regional dealer partnerships rather than direct M&A.

Core offering

Techmark designs, distributes, and services computerized ventilation and climate control systems for agricultural storage and indoor cultivation. The company integrates fans, humidity, CO2, and heating/cooling technologies into custom systems that protect post-harvest crop quality for vegetables (potatoes, onions, carrots) and enable precise environmental control for mushroom production facilities. Its Stor-Trac and Spor-Trac platforms provide real-time monitoring, remote control, and data analytics for these environments.

Product overview

Techmark offers a unified platform of agricultural monitoring and control products centered around Stor-Trac and Spor-Trac — real-time monitoring and control systems for post-harvest storage and indoor cultivation. The core offerings include vegetable storage ventilation systems (potatoes, onions, carrots) and indoor cultivation/composting systems (specializing in mushroom production). Supporting the core platforms are modular consulting services including facility reviews, airflow testing, specialty crop storage consulting, and collaborative design services. The product portfolio also includes essential hardware components such as controls, sensors, fans, humidification systems, variable frequency drives, actuators, and refrigeration systems. The Stor-Trac platform provides live monitoring with integrated control for storage metrics, while Spor-Trac serves mushroom and specialty crop facilities — both platforms enable total connectivity with team access and real-time alerts. The ecosystem is complemented by professional services for system design, operation training, and ongoing technical support.
