Growing smarter for healthier food and greener living
Professional growing
For professional growers, we offer continuous quality monitoring of our substrates as well as onsite support. We have tooling in place that can optimise both the effectiveness as well as thee sustainability of our substrate recipes. After the first use of our substrate materials, we offer circular solutions to optimise the after-use. This is continuous research that we perform together with our customers, knowledge institutes, and other sector organisations.
Retail
For retail, we offer solutions, products and customised mixtures based on responsibly sourced raw materials and evaluated through our standardised quality management process. Our packages contain recycled content and are recyclable. We help consumers to optimally use our products and create healthy and green communities.
Landscaping
Our expertise in landscaping leads to green roofs, facades and outside areas. Using the local situation as starting point we try to reuse as much of the existing landscape elements and materials as possible. Together with our customers we will find climate-smart solutions that help neighbourhoods become more biodiverse and attractive to live in.
Case studies
Sustainability means for us an opportunity to innovate
Innovation is at the heart of Kekkilä-BVB, aiming at developing high-tech growing media of constant quality by using locally sourced raw materials in combination with value added products that are plant or application specific, thereby focusing on a systems approach that has a sustainability gain.
The process is controlled by two in-house laboratories in the Netherlands, one in De Lier and one in Venlo, enabling laboratory analysis as well as growth trials on experimental growing media.
