Afval Advies Buro Milgro

Less than a year later, the name Milgro was added to the company name. Milgro is a contraction of Milieu Groep. The waste advice bureau Milgro focused on advice in internal waste logistics and recycling.

Services Milgro

It soon became apparent that, in addition to the advisory role, clients also like to assign Milgro the directing role. This resulted in the new name: Services Milgro.

The bee as a symbol

With the bee as a symbol of connection and supplier of ecosystems, Milgro's proposition is clear: we provide technology for managing natural capital.

This technology, together with our proven approach and methodology, enables companies to successfully implement the raw materials transition. The result is profitable sustainability: earn & earth together.
