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.
Alternatively, 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.

Materials Used
Sustainable Materials: The Eco Planter is likely made from sustainable materials such as biodegradable plastics, recycled materials, or natural fibers. These materials have a lower environmental impact compared to conventional plastics or non-renewable resources.
- Biodegradable Plastics: Biodegradable plastics are designed to break down more quickly in the environment, reducing long-term pollution. According to a study by the European Bioplastics Association, biodegradable plastics can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions during their lifecycle compared to traditional plastics.
- Recycled Materials: Using recycled materials helps in reducing the demand for virgin materials, thereby conserving natural resources and reducing the energy needed for production. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), recycling can save energy, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and decrease pollution.
Manufacturing Process
Energy-Efficient Manufacturing: The production process of the Eco Planter may involve energy-efficient techniques and renewable energy sources, further lowering its carbon footprint.
- Renewable Energy: Manufacturing facilities powered by renewable energy sources like solar or wind energy contribute less to greenhouse gas emissions. A report by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) indicates that renewable energy can reduce CO2 emissions from manufacturing processes by up to 80%.
Transportation
Local Sourcing and Distribution: If the materials and the final product are sourced and distributed locally, the carbon footprint associated with transportation is significantly reduced.
- Local Sourcing: Local sourcing minimizes the transportation distance, reducing fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. According to a study by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), local sourcing can reduce transportation emissions by up to 60%.
Product Lifecycle
Longevity and Reusability: The Eco Planter is designed to be durable and reusable, reducing the need for frequent replacements and lowering overall resource consumption.
- Durability: Products that last longer require fewer replacements, reducing the demand for raw materials and the environmental impact associated with manufacturing and disposal. A study published in the Journal of Cleaner Production highlights that extending the lifespan of products can significantly lower their carbon footprint.
End-of-Life Disposal
Biodegradability and Recycling: The Eco Planter can be composted or recycled at the end of its life, reducing landfill waste and environmental pollution.
- Composting: Compostable products break down into natural elements, enriching the soil and reducing landfill waste. According to the Composting Council Research and Education Foundation, composting can sequester carbon, helping to mitigate climate change.
- Recycling: Recycling materials at the end of the product's life cycle can conserve resources and reduce emissions. The EPA states that recycling aluminum, for example, saves 95% of the energy required to produce the same amount from raw materials.
