About EL4YU

The three values of EL4YU are Dog– Durable – Design

EL4YU develops and sells ecological lifestyle products 4 you & 4-legged friends. This way, we want to contribute to reducing our carbon footprint.

It all started with the impressions I got from my travel impressions to several countries around the globe. Every time I was confronted with the negative impact of our humans to nature. One experience that specifically was impressive to me was the encounter with Orca’s in New Zeeland. A very special experience to see this beautiful species in their natural habitat. Our guide explained that the survival of Orca’s is being threatened, amongst others because many first-born baby’s do not survive due to the high amount of chemicals in their bodies which is transferred by their mothers into the fetus.  But also, the visible injuries on adult animals due to crashes with ship propellers impressed me.

The idea to start developing lifestyle products 4 you & 4-legged friends initiated from my own dog. I was looking for an eco-friendly dog bed for him which would also match our interior style. Since I didn’t find one, I developed it myself. That was the start of EL4YU.

The name EL4YU consists of my own name and that of my 4-legged friend.
