Growing over time.
Over more than 25 years, idverde has grown from a local green services business into a connected European collective rooted in local expertise. What began on the ground, close to the everyday realities of parks, streets, grounds, and landscapes, has evolved into a multi-country organisation built on shared knowledge, practical experience, and long-term partnerships. Today, our group continues to strengthen its capabilities, support local teams, and expand its positive impact across regions and countries, all over Europe, making everyday places work better for the people who manage them and the communities who use them.
ISS, a global leader in facility services and workplace management, created a division specialised in green services in France, laying the foundations for what would later become idverde.

Expanding across Europe.
Our expansion across Europe is guided by our purpose: bringing strong local expertise together to make everyday lives better through nature.
As we grow into new markets and strengthen existing ones, we connect teams, skills, and practical experience across different climates, landscapes, ecosystems, and urban environments.
This collective approach allows us to share better ways of working across regions and countries, helping clients create healthier, more resilient, and more enjoyable places through nature.
Strong local teams. One shared collective.
idverde operates as one collective of local teams, close enough to understand local requirements, and broad enough to bring the skills and support clients need across Europe.
This model allows teams to stay grounded in local realities while benefiting from broader skills, experience, and long-term support across regions and countries.
By learning from different soils, climates, materials, ecosystems, and water systems, and by sharing what works, we help each team serve clients better, while strengthening the collective as a whole.
As partners in greener living, we help clients shape, manage, and improve outdoor environments that support better everyday lives.
