“ Walk the talk.”

4 partners, 1 vision

Four parties joined forces in a unique partnership to stimulate companies, politicians and organisations to embrace sustainability in their daily activities. The idea of THE TREEHOUSE originated from Sappi, an international paper producer, and its communications agency Proximity BBDO. The Flemish Forest and Nature Agency and the city of Hechtel-Eksel quickly joined in. And all with the same vision: environmental quality and social responsibility for the benefit of people, planet and profit.

Room for sustainability

THE TREEHOUSE is a small architectural wonder equipped with state-of-the-art eco facilities located in the forests of Hechtel-Eksel. But above all, it is the ideal place for break-out sessions where businesses can brainstorm about the importance sustainability has in their company, why and how they can improve to build a better future for the planet. It is the perfect location for scientific research and relevant presentations.

Sharing is caring

The project aims to bridge the gap between economy and ecology. Therefore THE TREEHOUSE is also an online platform where people can share ideas from their brainstorming sessions which can lead to interesting cross-pollination.

THE TREEHOUSE is a partnership project with both commercial and public partners. Though this is not always the easiest union, in this case it has proven to be a fruitful one. Nearly one year after the first idea, THE TREEHOUSE is a reality.

Founding Partners:

As a global pulp and paper producer, Sappi Fine Paper Europe works with a renewable source: trees. Sustainability is at the heart of everything that Sappi does. With THE TREEHOUSE, Sappi hopes other companies will also walk the sustainable talk.

The Forest and Nature Agency focuses on policy and sustainable management with regards to forests, biodiversity and nature. Its mission ‘more, better, together’ perfectly aligns with THE TREEHOUSE concept, bringing people closer to nature.

THE TREEHOUSE resides in the woods of Hechtel-Eksel, one of the greenest cities in Flanders. The city immediately realised the importance of THE TREEHOUSE for the prosperity of the local community.

Sappi’s future-proof communications agency came up with the idea of THE TREEHOUSE. Today, the agency coordinates the project and handles its communication.

Supporting Partners:

No more cold mass-produced products, but heart-warming radiators with soul. Jaga’s vision says it all. The Flemish radiator producer is a trendsetter in innovating design but always integrates sustainability in its thinking. And already for 30 years now. Jaga is clearly the perfect partner for THE TREEHOUSE to deliver its climate system with heat pump.

This ultra modern graphical company has produced high-quality printing since 1948. By producing in the most ecological way, Haletra contributes to the environment every day and hopes that thanks to The Tree House others will take this ‘green way’ too.

Ahrend wants to develop itself as the foremost innovator in contemporary working, learning and living environments. We do this by listening carefully to our customers, by constantly learning and making substantial investments in process- and product-innovation. As an extension to this, Ahrend wants to be sustainable in every sense of the word. As a partner of THE TREEHOUSE, this will enable us to make an important contribution to a sustainable society.

Inverde is the forum for green expertise both for the Flemish Government and for the green sector. We invest in peoples’ knowledge, as well as green projects the Government and its partners are involved in. In this way, we are working on creating a greener Flanders. As a result of its many years of experience, Inverde has built up a wealth of expertise in forestry, green space and nature management.
