Sustainable packaging

By making our packaging sustainable, we are also contributing to the national programme 'Nederland Circulair in 2050' [circular Netherlands by 2050]. Packaging is a means of transport, and its standardised dimensions contribute to an efficient chain. It also offers optimal protection to the carefully cultivated horticultural products.

The challenge with sustainable packaging is finding the right balance for every product-packaging combination. At Royal FloraHolland you will find the B2B (business to business) transport packaging that suits your product and your customers' needs.

• On 21 February 2019 we signed the Plastic Pact NL.
• We use less packaging material.
• The materials that we use are more sustainably produced and easier to reuse.
• Packaging intended for repeated use scores better than recyclable packaging. The environmental performance of both forms of packaging can be improved further, with the aim to achieve a more positive environmental impact.
• We launched an initiative with customers to make transport packaging in the chain more sustainable.
