Environment
Strong Dutch roots certainly play a big part in our commitment to the environment. Since the very beginning, caring for the environment is an integral part of the Bloem culture.
Products that are safe and effective
- Gardeners rely on Bloem’s trusted brands because our products live up to their promises.
- Our consumer products are based on the same technology used in our professional horticulture business.
- Ongoing research & development is designed to bring future product improvements that will make the lawn and gardening experience more successful, safe and easy.
Designs that contribute to a healthy environment
Bloem is focused on how its product designs, formulations and packaging processes impact the environment. Many of our innovations have improved the environment by decreasing waste emissions and lessening the potential for runoff.
Our product development includes multiple reviews to ensure safety to people, plants, animals and the environment. Our planning also incorporates the recovery, recycling and reuse of materials that might otherwise be headed for the waste stream.
At Bloem we continue that dedication to the environment in our office environment. At Bloem we are a paperless office. We strive to eliminate paper in Bloem. We don’t use ‘post it notes’. Instead we use MS Outlook notes, tasks and calendar entries. We don’t write down telephone messages on paper, instead we send callers to each Associates voicemail. We have virtual servers to minimise power consumption and recycle our waste in our Breakout Room.
Collect Rainwater
Collecting rainwater is a simple way to re-use rainwater for your gardening needs. Using a rain barrel is an easy and cost effective way to collect mineral and chlorine free water which you can then use for watering lawns, yards, and gardens and more.
