NOTE: The plants are only for representation purposes only. This product has been crafted by hand and may have slight irregularities or imperfections in colour. These irregularities are the result of human involvement in the process and add to the finished product’s charm while ensuring you have a one-of-a-kind piece.
Illuminate your home by using UPCYCLED-HANDCRAFTED eco Planters Small. The planter will embrace your favourite indoor plants in chic style. You can either directly plant with soil or use it as a cover for the pots. A built-in drainage hole protects it from overwatering and places it on a plate so that the excess water is collected. Alternately, you can also use the planters as organiser baskets, either use to keep towels in the bathroom or magazines in the living room or kid’s toys and stationeries. There are endless possibilities!
- Colour: Multicolored
- Dimensions: 5.5” height, 4.5” x 4.5” base
- Product Details: UPCYCLED-HANDCRAFTED fabric is made from waste plastic outside, waste flex banners inside, and a small hole at the bottom for extra water to seep out.
Attention: For best results, pour very little water into the plant in the planters, just enough to keep the soil moist! Besides, use a layer of moss at the base of the grow pot, and then add soil on top.

- Material Selection:
- Recycled Materials: Eco planters are often made from recycled plastics, wood, or biodegradable materials such as bamboo fiber. Using recycled materials reduces waste and the need for virgin resources, leading to lower environmental impact.
- Biodegradable Materials: When made from biodegradable materials, the eco planter can break down naturally at the end of its life cycle, reducing landfill waste.
- Manufacturing Process:
- Energy Efficiency: Sustainable manufacturing practices include energy-efficient processes and the use of renewable energy sources, which reduce greenhouse gas emissions during production.
- Low-Impact Manufacturing: The production process may use less water, produce fewer pollutants, and minimize waste, contributing to a smaller environmental footprint.
- Durability and Longevity:
- Long-lasting: Eco planters are designed to be durable and long-lasting, reducing the frequency of replacement and the associated environmental impact of manufacturing new products.
- Resistance to Weathering: Materials used are often resistant to weathering and degradation, enhancing their usability over time.
- Local Production:
- Reduced Transportation Emissions: If the planters are produced locally, the transportation emissions are significantly reduced compared to products that are shipped internationally.
Low Carbon Footprint Justification:
- Material Efficiency:
- Reduced Resource Extraction: Utilizing recycled or biodegradable materials reduces the need for resource extraction, which is often energy-intensive and carbon-emitting.
- Lower Emissions from Materials: The production of recycled materials typically emits less CO₂ compared to virgin materials. For example, producing recycled plastic requires less energy and results in lower greenhouse gas emissions than producing new plastic.
- Energy Usage:
- Renewable Energy Use: If the manufacturing process uses renewable energy sources like solar or wind power, the carbon footprint is further reduced.
- Energy-Efficient Manufacturing: Advanced manufacturing technologies that require less energy contribute to a lower overall carbon footprint.
- Supply Chain Optimization:
- Efficient Logistics: Optimized supply chains with efficient logistics reduce transportation emissions. Local sourcing of materials and local manufacturing can significantly cut down on carbon emissions related to transportation.
- Life Cycle Analysis (LCA):
- Comprehensive LCA: Conducting a Life Cycle Analysis helps in identifying and mitigating carbon emissions at each stage of the product’s life cycle—from raw material extraction to disposal. Eco planters designed with sustainability in mind will have a lower overall carbon footprint as indicated by their LCA.
- End-of-Life Management:
- Recyclability: Products that can be recycled or composted at the end of their life contribute to a circular economy, minimizing waste and associated emissions from waste management processes.
- Biodegradability: Biodegradable materials break down naturally without releasing harmful greenhouse gases, unlike conventional materials that may release methane when decomposing in landfills.
