Sustainability

Nature is our supplier, and we strive to protect it. Our continuous goal is to produce as sustainably as possible. From a technical point of view this means by using as little fossil fuels as possible, contributing to the recovery of the earth. That is why we have linked a sustainable and integrated energy system to our greenhouses. All energy sources in the company (systems that produce heat or cold) are interconnected for optimum efficiency.

The result: the cultivation area has quadrupled over the years, but gas consumption has been reduced by almost 70% per m2. Preparations are underway to start using heat from a geothermal source, so that we can work completely fossil-free at all locations in Westland. The door is always open to newer techniques, so that the crazy ideas discussed during the Friday afternoon drink result in profitable projects such as the energy roof and canal heat. Everything is possible; it is simply a matter of doing, together with nature and our suppliers.
