A forerunner of sustainable development

The electricity used to manufacture our bags for domestic use is wind-generated. We mainly make the bags from recycled and renewable raw materials.

The electricity used at the Lappfors factory has been supplied by a local wind farm since 2011. This means our power supply comes entirely from renewable energy sources.

We are the first company in our industry in the Nordic countries to be granted permission to use the Nordic Swan Ecolabel. The credential, which aims to promote sustainable development, helps consumers identify responsible products. Only manufacturers who take the entire life cycle of a product, from raw materials to recycling, into account, can use the label.

We manufacture our bin liners and other waste bags at the Lappfors factory in western Finland’s Ostrobothnia. In 2014, the products were granted permission to use the Key Flag symbol by the Association for Finnish Work. The Key Flag symbol guarantees that a product or service is of Finnish origin.
