Together for climate-neutral horticulture
By participating in Horti Footprint Circle you work together with other companies with the aim of reducing the environmental impact of the entire chain.
Our means
The joined forces of Horti Footprint Circle
Horti Footprint Circle consists of three elements: footprint calculations, promotion, and a network of companies genuinely committed to the climate-neutral future of horticulture. This alliance of forces forms the unique means to achieve our goal. The different elements reinforce each other and create new possibilities.
As a participant, you will benefit from these advantages and get ready to take action.
Footprint
Reducing based on footprint
The impact that your business activities and products have on the environment is also referred to as the environmental footprint. Calculating a footprint provides insight into how sustainable your company and your products are and is the basis for sustainability. Together we will work to reduce the environmental impact throughout the entire chain.
If you are a grower or supplier, the starting point for participation is calculating your product footprint. This allows us to identify where improvements are possible in the chain. This detailed representation of the environmental impact allows you to start targeted discussions with suppliers. It enables you to embark on sustainability efforts in a very effective manner.
