The greenhouse meets all requirements in Japan, where we also had to take into account the high earthquake factor.

Special requirements in Japan
The greenhouse meets all Japanese requirements, and of course earthquakes must be taken into account. We specialise in designing and building high-quality glass structures for botanical gardens, zoos and garden centres, among others. Known for iconic projects around the world such as RHS Wisley, Wildlands Zoo and Flora Cologne, we combine innovation, craftsmanship and sustainable design to deliver exceptional results.
Expert in botanical greenhouse construction
Many botanical gardens rely on us to create glass structures that support and protect fragile plant life. From butterfly gardens to cultivation and exhibition greenhouses, each project is uniquely designed to create the ideal growing conditions for rare and exotic species.
By carefully controlling the climate zones (temperature, humidity and light) plants thrive in an environment that mimics their natural habitat. These energy-efficient greenhouses not only ensure optimal plant health, but also provide a sustainable, inviting space where visitors can connect with nature.
