Our Story
簡素 KANSO
Kanso (簡素) refers to the simplicity or elimination of
clutter. It is an expression in a plain, simple, and natural manner.
We noticed this philosophy lead back to being purposeful and intentional with our actions. The more mindful we were about the things we bought, the relationships we formed, the more meaningful experiences became.
Whether it’s the idea of turning waste into resource or simple visual elegance, Kanso Designs strives to cultivate more meaningful spaces for our customers and our community.

Benefits of
Kanso Planters
Coffee Bean Husk - During the coffee bean hulling process, the fruits are de-seeded and dried, resulting in a strong husk.
Bamboo Fibre - Bamboo is an extremely renewable resource, as it grows much faster than trees, doesn't need pesticides, and doesn't need to be replanted.
Rice husks - are abundant and are a readily available biomass resource that can be used for insulation, fuel, building materials, and fertilizer.
Waste to
Resource
Wheat Husk - is the protective cover around the grain & is mostly ploued into the soil or burned.

Coco Colr - is a natural byproduct of coconut harvesting and is a sustainable alternative to peat moss.
Signature Stone Plastics - Post-consumer recycled plastics account for 70% of these pots as well as stone & wood powder to elevate its textures.

Our Testimonials
What People Say?
We sell a curated selection of planters and many manufacturers do not offer matching saucers, so we're always on the hunt for beautiful, high quality, yet minimally timeless saucers. Kanso has hit that mark. My only wish is that they restock their 15" and maybe even offer more diameters someday. Super quick fulfillment time. Ordering again now that I know the quality is superior.
Tiffany
The Plant House - Ferndale, MI
Just received our first order today and we are so impressed! The quality of the products has well exceeded our expectations and love how eco-minded everything is from the making of the items to the packaging. Will keep these in the shop as staples!
Dawn
Living Room Plant Co. - Pacifica, CA
Kanso’s planters check all of the boxes: they’re eco-friendly, come in at a great price point, always have drainage holes, and are super durable. My customers really appreciate that they look like concrete / ceramic pots, but are lightweight and less breakable.

Do you do custom styles & colors?
In addition to the available styles, we also offer tailor-made designs and color options that can seamlessly integrate with your product line. Our process begins by creating a 3D mold that is customized to your specific dimensions and then precisely crafted at our factories. The mold can be manufactured in any size, even up to a diameter of 65 inches.
Where are your materials sourced from?
Asia leads the world in the production of plastic waste as well as the mismanagement of plastic waste material. East Asia and Pacific regions account for over 60% of the mismanagement of plastic waste material.
We have decided to go to the root of the problem and source our recycled plastics from Asia and use it as a material in our products.
Asia has built a sufficient waste management infrastructure to handle recycled wastes and turn them into resources for our pots.
Currently, this is not accessible or sustainable in continents like Europe and North America.
We would like to utilize their infrastructure to create a more circular economy that one day we could bring to North America.

Are Kanso pots recyclable?

Are Kanso pots weatherproof or frostproof?
Only our Signature Stone Series is weatherproof & frostproof. They can be used
outdoor normally from -50 degrees Celsius to 100 degrees Celsius. Our natural upcycled planters can only be used indoors.
