Long-lasting products promote sustainability

Products and extended product lives represent the most important cornerstone of a sustainable business approach. Good products have a long life, often stretching beyond one generation. Users often form a personal bond with tools or other items that they particularly like and pass them on to others.

It is only natural that the principles of sustainable development are also followed in Fiskars Village, where the company was born. The community, now devoted to art and design, has been presented with the international Royal Award for Sustainable Tourism in recognition of the fact that good design and a good environment are grounded in the same values.

Fiskars strives to underline the importance of sustainability through practical efforts aimed at helping people behave responsibly.
