lifespan of a greenhouse

The lifespan of the average outdoor greenhouse is 15 to 20 years. Due to weather conditions, the greenhouse often needs to be replaced. In addition to hobby greenhouses, the Netherlands has a large number of greenhouse horticulture companies that cover a total of more than 10,000 hectares of greenhouses, especially in the Westland area.

Not to be missed and clearly visible through our large glass facade, are our meeting rooms. There are a total of seven on the ground floor of Milgro, in all shapes and sizes. The large amount of glass and the open spaces of our building fit in seamlessly with two important values ​​for Milgro: openness and transparency. For example, Milgro's colleagues meet and work in the greenhouses in closed acoustics, but with an open mind towards each other.

Milgro's special office

Furnishing the office with end-of-use materials is in line with Milgro's vision that waste is a resource that has lost its way.

As a connector between disposers and recipients of used raw materials, Milgro applies this vision in practice. With technology, methodology and a proven approach, Milgro enables companies to successfully implement the raw materials transition. The result is profitable sustainability: Earth & Earn together.
