Sustainability
Sustainability at Ankarsrum is a comprehensive commitment that begins at inception and extends through every facet of our operations. When you invest in an Ankarsrum Assistent Original, you’re selecting a premium product designed to last. We minimize our environmental footprint across all aspects of our business, from sourcing suppliers and materials to production and transportation. Our primary objective is crafting products that will endure for generations.
Our Products:
We prioritize sustainability and uphold our ethical responsibility. The majority of the aluminum in our products is sourced from 100% locally recycled aluminum, while all plastic in our accessories is Bisphenol A free. Our packaging is made from 93% recycled materials, utilizing Swedish corrugated cardboard and biodegradable glue. To ensure safe transportation, we use Expanded Polystyrene (EPS), a recyclable material comprised of 98% air.
Local Sourcing:
We collaborate with suppliers in our region, minimizing transportation and facilitating swift adoption of advancements in technology and materials. This proximity enhances our production efficiency at every stage.
Longevity:
Behind each Ankarsrum Assistent Original lies meticulous craftsmanship, ensuring a lifelong companion in the kitchen. Each unit is tested before leaving our factory, and is backed by a 7-year warranty. Our machines often outlast even these expectations, becoming cherished heirlooms passed down through generations.
