The SWEDSPAN Group was formed as a spin-off from IKEA’s in-house furniture maker Swedwood in March 2008. SWEDSPAN’s main goal is to provide our customers with innovative, lightweight and environmentally friendly wood based panels. The IKEA vision is to create a better everyday life for people – for consumers, co-workers and people producing the products. Consequently, low prices at IKEA must not be achieved at the expense of people or the environment. This is a precondition for IKEA for doing good business. As member of the IKEA Group of Companies, SWEDSPAN takes sustainable production very seriously. Our ambition is not only to comply fully with existing laws and regulations on environmental protection and production standards; our goal is to set new standards and advance the concept that only sustainable business is good business. We strive to implement production processes that minimize and filter the emissions caused during wood processing. Furthermore, we have almost effluent free production processes, our own bio-energy production, and we strive to run all SWEDSPAN buildings by renewable energy. Finally, we focus both our products and our material development activities on lightweight elements and low emissions – an important contribution to a sustainable business.
