"Mark" is the place in Sweden where it all began and "slojd" stands for craftsman's joy. Markslöjd has been manufacturing lighting since 1963, and as the name suggests some handicraft items before the lighting business took over completely. Markslöjd is today one of Northern Europe's leading lighting companies. Markslöjd cares about the environment and to reduce our climate footprint by actively working to recycle products that may have been crushed in shipping or the like. They collaborate with Elkretsen, which recycles all materials that can then become new goods, in addition, Markslöjd is self-sufficient in green electricity from wind power.
