An example is their recent project installing a bespoke traditional greenhouse for a newly appointed walled garden. Dominic Palmer, the head gardener of a large private estate, prefers greenhouses to feel alive and loved; this was certainly true of his workplace. It has been kitted out with traditional benching, either side of the lobby to partition the doors in the central section, as well as creating a ushaped section in both the left and right areas
Alitex are delighted to join the SGD in sponsoring their Lifetime Achievement Award again at this year ’ s ceremony. Their team will be attending the event, so make sure to stop by for a drink and chat to delve into some of the impressive projects from Alitex’s past.
