Founded in 2006, Artevasi has become the world's leading manufacturer of environmentally friendly, sustainable pots made from recycled plastic. They now export to over 50 countries on 5 continents, with offices worldwide.

In 2022, Artevasi took a bold step forward and invested hugely to build a brand-new state-of-the-art terracotta factory. With 160 years of family know-how in the production of terracotta pots, that desire was already in the blood of the owner and CEO, Rodolfo Resende, who spent most of his childhood out of school in his grandparents' factory, eager to help and learn the family trade.

Located in Boialvo, a small town in the district of Aveiro, the new factory covers an area of 70,000 square metres and has a production capacity of 40,000 pots per day, with production and logistics working around the clock to produce the most beautiful and sustainable terracotta pots.

Longacres seizes the opportunity

Liam Barrett of Longacres Garden Centres visited the new Artevasi factory in July 2023 and was keen to be one of the first garden centres in the UK to take advantage of the new retail solution on offer. Liam said: "The quality of the Artevasi terracotta is excellent, and the wide range of products available gives us options that will help us to offer something different to our customers that we can't get from our other suppliers, particularly in terms of larger sizes and different colours."

Artevasi fully controls the production process, and because you buy directly from the manufacturer, you are assured of the best prices. With the cost-of-living crisis affecting household disposable income, value for money is crucial, and to offer your customers the best value, you need to buy at the best cost prices. By buying direct from the factory, you can do just that. 

With full production of three collections in recycled plastic, handmade ceramics and terracotta, Artevasi produces all its pots in Portugal, focusing on the quality of the raw materials to create the most beautiful and sustainable pots.
