Sustainability

We create innovative solutions for growing food, gardening and greener cities through collaboration and education. We believe that nature positive solutions are essential in clean food production and greening urban environments. We also believe that sustainable solutions create a positive mood and an optimistic view towards the future.

Collaboration is the key

Responsible and engaged partners are in the center of our operations. For the common good we want to sign a Code of Conduct with all our partners.

Sustainability is at the core of our strategy and purpose

People, Planet and Products – These are the three perspectives from which we approach sustainability to achieve our ultimate target to improve our net positive impact every year, which means that we constantly want to contribute more to the world than we take from it.

The climate crisis, the loss of biodiversity, the ecosystem decline, the growing population and the increased need for food are challenges we have identified as those we can have the biggest impact on. These societal developments will bring both challenges as well as opportunities to this sector and to our business.
