Recycling

Our goal is to recycle everything that can be recycled and we are working on this both in the department store, our Restaurangen and in our accommodation.

We have agreements with several external operators who receive and manage our waste. We try to find local producers who can take the sorted fractions and transform them into new products. We are working to reduce our packaging materials as much as possible, but at present it cannot be completely eliminated. We encourage our suppliers to pack in bulk instead of multiple small packages that then need to be handled by our employees.

During the course of a day in the department store, goods or packaging may break. These products are collected on an ongoing basis and go to what we have chosen to call crush sorting. This sorting is done continuously during the day and everything that can still be sold, e.g. a sheet whose packaging has broken but is still whole and clean, is repackaged and goes on sale again. There are several recycling stations in the store that handle different types of recycling, including electronics, textiles, food and more. What cannot be sold in any way is registered as crushed and sent on for recycling and donated to selected organizations.
