Supporting where we stand – and where we believe it makes a difference
At Persson Innovation, we don’t just handle products – we handle responsibility. For example, community engagement isn’t an extra, it’s part of who we are and how we think – both when we develop products and when we choose what we want to be part of outside of work.
Sustainability, to us, is about more than materials. It’s about people, relationships, and the future we want to help build. We work every day to create handles that are better for the planet – using fewer resources and smarter designs. But we also know that sustainability is about how we act as individuals and as a company.
Local engagement with real impact
We believe there is value in encouraging engagement within our workplace – not just because it strengthens the bonds between all employees at Persson Innovation – but because it makes us a company that stands for something.
At Persson Innovation, we have a simple principle: if one of our employees puts time and heart into an association, especially one that supports youth through sports and activities, then we want to support it. It can be go-kart as you can read about here, but also cheerleading, tennis, equestrian sports – or something completely different. The important thing is that it means something, both for the individual and for the community around them.
Another of our local engagements are for example “More Than Just Football”, a project by Örebro Sportsclub (ÖSK), that connects sports with social sustainability and shows how sports can be a force for something bigger than the game itself.
Youth sports shape the future
Sports teach young people to cooperate, take responsibility, and handle both success and adversity. These are qualities that are needed – whether you become an elite athlete, an engineer, or something completely different. By supporting youth sports, we are helping to build something that lasts over time.
If you want to learn more about how we work with sustainability – or the handles we design with care – don’t hesitate to reach out.
