At Swedev, sustainability isn’t just a goal – it’s a fundamental part of how we work. We’re committed to long-term sustainable development, continuously improving our products and processes to minimize environmental impact while promoting social responsibility and local engagement. Our approach is grounded in everyday action – from how we manage water and energy, to how we care for our employees and contribute to our community.
We exclusively use high-quality steel produced in Sweden, globally recognized for its stringent environmental standards, fossil-free ambitions, and fully traceable production. In collaboration with leading Swedish producers, we’ve co-developed advanced steel grades that offer greater strength and longevity – enabling reduced material usage, fewer replacements, and a lower environmental footprint throughout the product lifecycle. Our blades are made from steel that can be recycled indefinitely without loss of quality – a major sustainability advantage over plastic-based alternatives.
All our packaging is made from 100% paper-based materials, which simplifies recycling and avoids unnecessary plastic. We continuously invest in equipment upgrades and process improvements to reduce waste, energy consumption, and water usage.
“Some of our customers might not be asking about sustainability yet, but we are confident that this will become increasingly important in the future!”
Swedev holds certifications that reflect our structured commitment to quality and sustainability:
Social responsibility and workplace safety

Over the past two decades, we’ve consistently improved our work environment through better ventilation, increased automation, and smarter material handling. These efforts are part of our long-term vision to create one of the safest, most sustainable workplaces in our industry — with continuous input and engagement from our team.
We offer benefits such as:
We’re committed to fair and equal treatment regardless of gender, and we perform salary mapping to ensure equity across roles.
