“A successful glasshouse is not just about structure. It is about creating the right environment for plants, visitors and long-term use.”
Jeroen Smiemans, directeur EdenParks
Built on more than 50 years of experience
Knowledge that starts with construction
EdenParks is part of the Smiemans family business, with more than 50 years of experience in complex glass construction. That practical background matters.
Our knowledge is not developed in isolation from construction. It comes from decades of engineering, building and maintaining glass structures in demanding environments across Europe and beyond.
This experience allows us to look beyond the concept and ask the questions that determine whether an ambitious project can ultimately be realised.
A different starting point for complex projects
From ambition to achievable solutions
Every project starts with an ambition. A new botanical glasshouse. A visitor environment. An architectural glass roof. A research facility or public destination. But between ambition and realisation lie important questions.
- Is the concept technically feasible?
- How will the environment perform?
- Which construction system is appropriate?
- How can architectural ambition and technical reality work together?
- What are the long-term implications for operation and maintenance?
EdenParks helps project teams address these questions early, before major decisions are made.
Part of Smiemans. Focused through EdenParks.
Smiemans focuses on the realisation of commercial and publicly accessible glass structures.
EdenParks brings together specialist knowledge for projects where complexity, architecture and performance require additional technical insight and coordination.
Together, this provides something that is difficult to separate: the ability to think strategically about a project while understanding what it takes to actually build it.
Working with specialists
Complex projects are never created by one discipline alone.
We work alongside architects, engineers, climate specialists, consultants and contractors, contributing specialist knowledge where glass construction, climate and technical feasibility intersect.
Our role depends on the project.
Sometimes this starts with an early feasibility discussion. Sometimes with technical development or engineering. And sometimes EdenParks remains involved through to realisation.
Designed to last
We believe a successful glass environment should do more than make an impression. It should support its purpose. Perform reliably. Remain maintainable. Adapt where necessary and continue to create value over time.
That means innovation is only relevant when it improves performance.
And architectural ambition is only successful when it can become a lasting reality.
