In February we shipped 800 kilos of fabric from Svensson in Kinna, to Gasabo, a community in Rwanda where the fabrics will help create jobs and better living conditions for women and their families. Behind the project is Swedish manufacturing company Safeman and partner Svensson, supplying both curtains and upholstery fabrics.

Svensson has all the skills it needs in-house, from research and development to design and production. We quizzed four employees about smart collaboration across departmental boundaries, and what that means in practice.

Svensson today exports climate screens to over 130 countries. Here two of the architects behind its success, Göran Henningsson and Cees den Boer, recall how it all began in the 1970s with a load of scrap and a brilliant idea.

Anne and Anders Ludvigson’s great-grandfather founded Svensson in 1887. The fourth generation to run the family company are leading it towards an increasingly bright future. Today, Svensson is recognized as one of Europe’s 1,000 most inspiring and fastest-growing companies. The secret of their success remains the same: the expertise of its staff and an ability to constantly reinvent itself.

Come visit us during Clerkenwell Design Week 22-24 May 2018. You will find us in Detail at The Order of St. John, stand D1.

Svensson has many loyal workers. And sometimes entire families who work at the company. Thomas Gunnarsson’s co-workers include his brother, son and son-in-law, and even members of their families.

Svensson supports the Mission Servants Ministry's Child Redeemed Mission home (CRM) in Uganda, Africa through a donation of Solarwoven Ultra, a reinforced transparent cover for the newly built greenhouse on the Child Redeemed Mission home's grounds.

This year's Stockholm Furniture and Light Fair was a success with thousands of visitors and exciting exhibitors! We have collected some of our highlights from the fair.

The exciting upholstery fabric called Tableau is part of the new spring collection from Svensson. Already, the newcomer is showcased in the celebration of the 100 years memorial of Ingmar Bergman, selected by students of the Swedish Träcentrum producing furnitures inspired by the movies of the demon director.

Soon it is time for one of the design highlights of the year - the Stockholm Furniture Fair. We are really looking forward to presenting our new spring collection and we would love to see you in booth A 20:10!
