Round tray in birch wood – Anne Just

In 2011, Søren Koustrup and Ulla Koustrup founded the publishing house Koustrup & Co. with the aim of spreading knowledge about plants, animals, gastronomy and ecological living. In 2014, the publisher grew up with two daughters and a son-in-law who have experience in plants, design and sales. This led to an expansion of the repertoire to include interior products such as trays, tea towels, umbrellas, napkins, etc. In 2018, the company was further expanded with 2 employees, so there are now 7 employees as well as 30 freelance writers, artists and graphic artists.

BEAUTIFUL LEAHONOR IS THE ESSENCE

With a great passion for beautiful, decorative illustrations and art, we continuously develop new Danish designed quality products that are not only beautiful to look at, but also provide knowledge about nature, garden, food, culture, History and animals. Every product has a story to tell and they want to share it with everyone.

PACKAGING, SHIPPING AND THE ENVIRONMENT

At Koustrup & Co., they care about the environment and a greener future. We focus on sustainability and select environmentally friendly materials for our products in as wide a range as possible. All textile products use organic cotton and water-based printing. Glass pieces, trays and cutting boards are made from sustainable Nordic birch veneer with environmentally friendly melamine coating that can withstand hot surfaces up to 200 degrees and approved for food. The cover napkins are produced from sustainable eucalyptus composite with environmentally friendly melamine coating. All card folders, individual cards and art prints are made of matte and heavily FSC certified paper, printed at a swan-branded printing facility in Europe. All their posters, art prints, tea towels and individual cards are packed in biodegradable cellophane, which is produced from plant starch from corn, which degrades at 58 degrees. Their packing foam is made from environmentally friendly compostable corn granules and the paper filling is recycled paper.
