From waste to wonder
As we celebrate our 60th anniversary, we proudly present our second impact report, marking a remarkable milestone: transitioning to 100% recycled plastic for all our products. This achievement is the culmination of 15 years of relentless innovation and pioneering change. Our promise is clear: 100% recycled, 0% waste.
What began with a modest order for 75,000 cactus pots 60 years ago has blossomed into an internationally leading production of 46 million sustainable designer pots each year. As a family business, we embrace our responsibility to build a greener and better world. Every day, we strive to improve ourselves, benefit others, and secure a sustainable future for generations to come.
Driven by our purpose to bring nature into people’s daily lives, elho has always focused on creating beautiful, high-quality, and sustainable products. We take pride in being unique in our market by offering all products made from 100% recycled plastic, which are also 100% recyclable and produced using 100% renewable energy.
It has been an incredible journey. Since 2006, we have been determined to create beautiful, high-quality products with an increasing focus on sustainability. As a Certified B Corp, we are committed to further investing in our sustainability and innovation efforts, using our business as a force for good.
Thanks to the involvement and commitment of our customers and partners over the past 60 years, the elho team has made a tangible difference in making the world a little greener. We look forward to continuing this journey together, inspiring even greater change to make the world a better place. Thank you for being a part of our green journey.
Net zero positive in 2025
In 2025 we want to be a net positive company. We want to give more back than we take from our planet & society. One of the first steps we are going to take is to make sure that we have in 2025 zero CO2 emission. Every year we work on initiatives to lower our footprint. Thanks to local production, use of 100% recycled material, 100% recyclability, limited water and renewable energy our carbon footprint is 2,5 times lower than non-sustainable plastic pots and 6 times lower than ceramic pots.
