Plant pot innovator elho achieves B Corp recertification

Elho is proud to announce that it has been successfully re-certified as a B Corp, with an impressive score of 104.5: a 28% increase from its certification 4 years ago.

B Corp is a globally recognised certification for companies that are making a major positive impact on people, society and planet by using their power to build a more sustainable and inclusive economy. It also proves that a company meets high standards for accountability and transparency.

As such, being a B Corp certified business aligns perfectly with elho’s values and vision. All elho products are made with nature in mind, using 100% recycled plastic and 100% renewable energy, so that everything they make is not only beautiful, but also in harmony with the planet. To ensure transparency with customers and consumers, the company also recently launched its eco passport concept, sharing the CO2 footprint of every product, and each year it releases an impact report sharing key highlights from its green initiatives.

B Corp assessed elho’s performance in five main impact areas: Governance, Employees, Community, Environment and Customers. Its ongoing commitment to creating positive change in every aspect of the business is reflected by a higher score in all of these areas, with the below highlights:

-      Engagement & Satisfaction of workers: its "Great Place to Work" employee satisfaction score continues to rise.

-      Air & Climate: elho monitors and communicates its CO2 emissions, which remain low, and has set clear reduction targets.

-      Land & Life: all elho products are made from 100% recycled plastic.

The score of 104.5 is the result of the amazing green journey elho has made so far – but it doesn’t end there for the plant pot innovator. In 2025, elho aims to become a net positive company, putting more into the planet and society than it takes out. The first step of this is to reach zero CO2 emissions – something that the company has been working toward reducing every year.
