Sustainability
At Pasiora, we recognize the value of environmental preservation and sustainability. Our nursery as a whole prioritizes it in addition to our employees as individuals. We continually assess our actions to make sure we are contributing to the preservation of our world. We work to be environmentally responsible in every element of our business, from plant cultivation to shipping, logistics, and our shop and blog.
Our desire is to give back to nature by doing our business sustainably. We consider ourselves tremendously lucky to work with such a beautiful and diverse variety of succulents. We're dedicated to always bettering ourselves and being open and honest with our clients about the sustainable projects we're putting into action and developing.
We give preference to recyclable and environmentally friendly materials when it comes to packaging. We recently converted to using vegan and even edible biodegradable packing chips derived from plant starch. To preserve them during transportation and keep soil or substrate from being spread, our plants are expertly wrapped in recycled silk paper.
The majority of the cartons we use are recyclable, and we use CO2-neutral shipping, paying extra to compensate for any carbon emissions. Additionally, we are aiming to replace our parcel adhesive tapes with plastic-free alternatives.
Along with our efforts in shipping and packaging, our greenhouse is committed to sustainability. We maintain a 1400 m2 space to encourage the creation of oxygen using rainwater collected from the roof to conserve water for our plants. Aloe Vera and Sanseveria are two of our succulent plants that are very good at cleaning the air and removing pollutants. NASA researchers advise having at least one plant per 9 m2 for the best air cleaning effects.
At Pasiora, we consider our dedication to sustainability to include caring for one another, our clients, and future generations in addition to the environment.
