EVERY YEAR 12 MILLION TONS OF PLASTIC ARE DUMPED INTO OUR OCEANS.

Ocean plastic pollutes marine ecosystems, endangers wildlife, and disrupts the
food chain. These plastics leach toxic chemicals, harming coral reefs and impacting
human health through contaminated seafood. Ultimately, it threatens the balance of
our planet’s fragile aquatic environments.  Learn more about Ebel’s commitment to
environmental responsibility.

TREES is an organization committed to promoting agroforestry and providing renewable energy to impoverished areas. For every piece of furniture we produce, Trees for the Future plants one tree.
Trees for the Future operates in degraded and deforested.

regions, tackling climate change and world hunger. Farmers are trained to sustainably revitalize their land. This provides sources of food they otherwise would not have access to. Through TREES’ Forest Garden Approach, farmers plant thousands of trees that provide protection and nutrition. Their gardens and soil are restored through nitrogen fixation.

This helps farmers grow a variety of fruits and vegetables. Forest Garden farmers gain increases in income and food security, even in the first year.
