We support people who are distanced from the labor market. We spare the environment by not using chemical pesticides, if necessary we use biological control. Plastic is avoided as much as possible and recycled. By keeping up with developments in packaging, we have an increasing percentage of biodegradable packaging available.

Recycled plastic and FSC paper
We strive to produce our products and packaging as CO2 neutral as possible, using PLA and PET plastic packaging and FSC certified paper.
GoGreen Climate Neutral Shipping
Through our partner DHL, we ship all our packages under the so-called GoGreen Climate Neutral service. With this service DHL calculates the CO2 emissions per shipment and compensates those emissions by investing in environmentally friendly projects.

Ecoworld products are delivered in environmentally friendly packaging, biodegradable with an Eco look. Co-packaged by people with a distance to the labor market.
