Environment
Cornerstones of our environmental management work:
- Develop and construct products specifically for a long service life
- Take opportunities for recycling into account in product development work
- Strive for parts to be replaceable, to extend the life of the product
- Manufacture the main products in own premises in Sweden, for full control of constituent parts and handling
- Choose subcontractors that are local in order to minimise transport use
- As far as possible, use recycled material in components and packaging
- Use transport companies that actively work with sustainability issues
- Choose components based on environment considerations and ensure that these comply with the requirements of the REACH chemicals ordinance. SVHC substances listed on the Candidate List may not be used in products. In the case of electronic products, suppliers are required to comply with the rules of the RoHS directive.
- Choose textiles that are OekoTex certified.
