Recycling plastics<\/h3>\n

Van Woudenberg Tuinplanten switched to the use of plastic pots made of recycled carbon-free material. In addition, there is a close cooperation with the key partners to put a closed loop recycling system in place.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”394″ img_size=”full” alignment=”right” el_class=”sideImg”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner el_class=”duurzamheidRow”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”395″ img_size=”full” alignment=”right” el_class=”sideImg”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”rightTextBox”]<\/p>\n

Natural growth process and natural balance<\/h3>\n

Van Woudenberg Tuinplanten\u2019s cultivation system clearly differentiates them from other companies. Plants are kept in open ground for a minimum of 1 year, before being transferred to a planter. This makes them less susceptible to deceases and less chemicals are used. Furthermore, the use of fewer chemicals has a positive effect on the natural balance. This benefits the many bees and butterfly plants grown by Van Woudenberg Tuinplanten. In addition, this longer growth process results in a reduced fall-out of plants and lower costs.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner el_class=”duurzamheidRow”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”rightTextBox”]<\/p>\n

Recycling water<\/h3>\n

Van Woudenberg Tuinplanten collects the excess run-off water together with the rainwater in a buffer area lined with lava rocks and re-uses this water. A positive side effect is that the washed-out fertiliser is also re-used. Van Woudenberg Tuinplanten tries to be as self-sufficient as possible in terms of the use of water.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”357″ img_size=”full” alignment=”right” el_class=”sideImg”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner el_class=”duurzamheidRow”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”358″ img_size=”full” alignment=”right” el_class=”sideImg”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”rightTextBox”]<\/p>\n

Fossil fuel<\/h3>\n

Woudenberg Tuinplanten does not use fossil fuels to heat their greenhouses but are using the residual heat of the adjacent tomato nursery to keep the greenhouses frost-free.
\nFor the internal logistics Van Woudenberg Tuinplanten has switched to electric transport carts. In addition, they are investigating the possibilities for external logistics by rail.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner el_class=”duurzamheidRow”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”rightTextBox”]<\/p>\n
