Nose for quality and innovation

E.L.S. Garden came into being in 2014, but the company's roots run deeper. In '78, Ivo started a one-man landscaping business in Balen-Olmen. A lack of choice in garden paving and decoration in our country made him seek solutions in French quarries. In addition to landscaping, the sale of quality garden materials soon became the main focus. More and more, Ivo started looking for natural stone and other materials. Also outside of Europe. With the largest imports from China and India.

Over time, daughter Els also found her way into the sector and started her own business together with her father in 2014. Within the new company E.L.S. Garden in Laakdal, they focus on selling exclusive and quality garden materials to professionals at home and abroad.

"E.L.S. Garden is not just another wholesale business," Els explains. "We always strive, in consultation with our customers, to offer innovative and exclusive garden products. Things that add real value to our sector."

Custom advice

"In doing so, we pride ourselves on always giving our customers honest advice about the pros and cons of our materials. So that they have enough information to make the right choice. Moreover, customers can always count on extensive advice on garden landscaping, garden maintenance, materials, ... Always tailored to their specific project." What goal E.L.S. Garden always has in mind? "Sustainability: quality for a long time. Customer satisfaction goes beyond just today. We want him to be satisfied in the long term as well."

Responding to trends

Like Ivo back then, the duo still regularly travels abroad to visit quarries there themselves. "Now take our natural stone from China, where we choose the materials ourselves. That material is completely naturally formed and no two end products look alike. Ideal for incorporation into paving in the garden. In that area, we specialize in customized natural stone. A terrace made from the same material as the edge of the pool? Or a matching staircase? Anything is possible. And exceptional quality is always guaranteed."

"By visiting the quarries ourselves, we get to know different producers, each with their own way of working and know-how. Moreover, we discover more about the quality of their materials. And how we can use their properties and cooperation to create top quality and innovations."

"In addition to this, we will also look specifically for answers to customer questions and materials that respond to current trends. In this way, we will always have a contemporary offer with which we can answer even the most specific questions."

Specialized assortment

In addition to natural stone, E.L.S. Garden also has a specialized range of other garden materials. "We have a wide range of coping stones for edging lawns, flower beds or garden paths. When laid flat, they can serve as stepping stones or wall coverings. You can also find wall skirting, palisades and retaining walls to practically bridge height differences."

And there are also modern garden fences, integratable into any garden. "Many people choose a garden screen with a natural look to match the green character of their garden. The stone screens within that category are ideal for building thin walls at great heights."

Heather mats are also perfect for incorporation as garden fencing. "Those consist of braided tree heather with galvanized and plasticized wires. This makes for a durable and strong whole. They are also visible and wind-protective, ideal also for decoration."

Packaged materials

"What most customers see as a huge advantage and a strong added value for the company is the compactly packed materials. Gravel and boulders, for example, are packed in big bags. This greatly simplifies logistics, which initially translates into clean and tidy delivery at favorable rates throughout Belgium (groupages). This also makes handling or moving the materials on site a lot easier."
