What is the Greenovation Award?
Sustainable production and sustainable products are increasingly the norm: the international consumer expects sustainability. Producers and traders are aware of its importance. Royal FloraHolland stimulates sustainable developments in the chain and has therefore created the Greenovation Award in 2018. In this way, Royal FloraHolland provides an extra platform for sustainable developments.

Winner 2023- Potweb
Erwin van Vliet Levoplant: "Winning this award is a real boost. It's important that we join forces. This collaboration is a great example of that." Potworm is a major problem in Phalaenopsis cultivation and the entire chain. A consortium of Levoplant, Ter Laak, Opti-flor and Solvent Engineering has therefore developed Potweb: the solution for environmentally friendly control of potworm in the cultivation of Phalaenopsis orchids.
Winner 2022 - Hazeu Orchids
Chiel Hazeu, "We have received a lot of publicity and positive feedback from the market". The hexagonal hexagonal pot allows 20% more orchids on the same surface area, with energy and space savings down the line as well.
Winner 2021 - Bernhard Plant Nursery
'Being a winner makes it easier to get your foot in the door with innovative suppliers,' says Bram Bernhard. The Elegant Phalaenopsis line is a completely sustainably grown butterfly orchid. One of the first growers to use geothermal heat to heat its greenhouses.
