Here’s the truth -
sustainability is complicated.
Let’s go beyond the surface.
We embrace transparency
Tired of seeing greenwashing and misinformation everywhere you go? So are we. Vague claims about being “green” are easy to throw around, but the reality of sustainable production is complicated. We have always relied on letting the quality of our cookware speak for itself, but it’s time to give you an inside look at the complex decision making involved in creating truly sustainable products. We’ll show you what we’re doing well, what we’re working on improving, and why we make the choices we do.
Sustainability has been our commitment since 1956. Our products are made in Denmark under extremely strict environmental standards. Since the first day we started making cookware we have made choices to minimize our carbon footprint, including striving to build durable, long-lasting cookware that doesn't end up in a landfill in only a few years. We are proud of our continued efforts and will always seek to make the best choice for our consumers and our environment in all we do.
