Sustainability is a key element in LEHA. To obtain sustainability, only the best materials can be used, these are carefully selected from our suppliers which are mostly located in Europe or the USA. All our products are easy to repair and every element can be reused.
Quality assurance
We give our products a high level of attention and care. Every ordered product is checked and tested for flawlessness and functionality, you receive our product only when it is flawless. This is why a 5-year warranty accompanies every product.
Experience
Our team consists of many different nationalities, apprentices, career changers and long-standing colleagues. Together we have the experience that matters.
Sustainability
What is more sustainable than products give pleasure for many years and are easily repairable? Our long-standing partnerships with customers and suppliers are also sustainable. Or our apprentice training, which secures us our future skilled workers.
