At Harho, sustainability isn’t just a concept; it’s the foundation of our entire business. We are committed to making a positive impact on the environment, and we strive to lead by example in everything we do. Here’s our sustainability policy:

Sustainable Procurement
We make conscientious choices when selecting items for our indoor grow boxes. We prioritise products with recyclable or long-lasting attributes.
Packaging and Recycling

Our packaging materials, including the box, paper, and soil packaging, are designed to be recyclable. We encourage our customers to responsibly recycle these materials.
Product Durability
Long-Lasting Products: Our seed planter, mini mist spray, and propagators are carefully designed for durability and longevity, intended to be used over a 12-month period and beyond.
Environmental Education
Promoting Sustainable Practices: We aim to educate and empower our customers to adopt sustainable practices, both through the use of our indoor grow box and the resources available on our app.
