The building is constructed using sustainable and environmentally friendly recyclable materials. This has resulted in Van Gelder having the most sustainable building in the Netherlands from which fruit and vegetables are traded. The location is especially suited for anyone looking to explore or be inspired by themes such as sustainability, innovation, and health. The building is easily accessible by bicycle and public transport, and there is free parking available at the main entrance.
