About Us

Established in 1963, the European Landscape Contractors Association (ELCA) serves as a leading platform for collaboration, knowledge exchange, and advocacy within the European landscaping industry. ELCA works to foster cooperation among landscape professionals while enhancing the visibility and recognition of the industry across Europe and globally.

A key focus of ELCA is political engagement and representation. The association actively maintains and strengthens relationships with members of the European Parliament, European Commission officials, and other relevant stakeholders. By building partnerships with like-minded organizations and expanding its network in Brussels, ELCA ensures that the interests of the landscape industry are effectively represented at the highest levels of policymaking.

Through these efforts, ELCA continues to advance the development and impact of the landscaping profession throughout Europe and beyond.
