Who are Ecomerchant?

We are completely dedicated to making ethically sourced, sustainable building materials accessible to all at affordable prices. We also consider the environmental merits of every product before including them in our ranges, opting not to sell products which cause excessive environmental impact.

Our team of knowledgeable staff are keen to help people build and refurbish using natural and sustainable materials where possible to create healthier, more efficient homes, schools and workplaces. The Ecomerchant brand has been around since 1998 and can be relied upon to offer well considered selections of materials

AN ETHICAL TRADING COMPANY

Ecomerchant is part of the Burdens family of companies. 46% of shares in our group are owned by a charitable trust and most of the balance by the staff, which means the profits go towards worthy projects around the world and the staff are rewarded for their combined efforts. Unlike many co-operative business models, our staff benefit from long term capital growth of the company rather than simply short term profits. This creates a sense of ownership amongst our staff and creates a culture focused on sustainable long term growth.

PROVIDING HEALTHY BUILDINGS

We consider the whole product supply chain from raw material production to end use, to ensure not only the lowest possible environmental impact, but also endeavour to ensure that there are no negative impacts on human health. Issues such as building durability and indoor air quality are high on Ecomerchant's agenda for consideration.

DEVELOPING SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS

Key to any design is the durability, carbon reduction, cost and quality. Ecomerchant has developed solutions with combinations of products which give best performance with least impact on our planet at the most affordable rates. Please feel free to ask our team about our ranges of sustainable building solutions.
