DEN OUDEN GROEP has provided 1000 m3 of Sylvester
tree bark for chrysanthemum nursery Janity Flowers B.V.
Janity Flowers took care of the transport themselves and
used a self-designed car to counteract soil densification as
much as possible. The tree bark was then slightly milled in
the top later. The tree bark is perfectly suited for preventing
compaction and rooting is being stimulated because of
the open structure that is created in the ground.
By first carrying out several trials with different products
in big-bags, ranging from fine to coarse, the joint choice for
Silvester Tree Bark Fraction 10-25 was made.
Janity Flowers B.V. is a year-round chrysanthemum
nursery founded in 1986. In 2005, the nursery moved to
Bruchem, where a completely new 48,000 m² company
was constructed that is still the most modern one in the
Netherlands.
DEN OUDEN GROEP supplies various types of soil
improvers to the municipality of Rotterdam to ensure that
nearly 600,000 trees and other greenery facilities remain
in top shape.
Trees in Rotterdam are often planted in the middle of an
urban area under non-ideal conditions, such as hardening,
on roofs of parking garages, and in roof parks. These trees
have little underground growth space. In order to keep
these trees and greenery in top shape, it is necessary to
fill the tree or plant holes, lawns, and flower boxes with soil
that is composed according to the right specifications. A
good and stable product is very important for the medium
term and the further future of the trees that need to grow in
it. By applying high-quality soil improvers and substrates,
Rotterdam ensures healthier and better quality trees and
plants, and thus a healthier living environment for its
citizens.
This involves over 20,000 tonnes/year of tree sand, tree
soil, tree granules and flower box substrate. All produced
under the RAG-certificate.
