Hestra - hållbarhet

Colleagues

As a fourth-generation family company we foster our culture of entrepreneurship. We are currently more than 600 colleagues in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Hungary, China, Vietnam, USA and Germany.

Sustainable leather for sustainable gloves

Hestra’s German leather supplier focuses on the best raw materials and local tanneries with advanced environmental technology. And that can be seen and felt in the gloves.

A Good Feeling

In the Philippines, the classic art of glove-making is being kept alive by skilled craftswomen and craftsmen. Here, in a well-kept factory, Hestra produces some of its timeless and fashionable glove models.

Supply chain and materials

Through long-lasting relationships with our partners, we source high-quality materials with durability and sustainability in mind.

In good hands

Our sustainability framework In good hands outlines our commitment to sustainable development throughout our value chain. When you choose a pair of Hestra gloves, you are in good hands.

Design and development

To meet our high quality standards, considerable effort goes into our product design and selection of materials.

Our approach to sustainability

Hestra was founded in 1936 by Martin Magnusson, who made gloves for local lumberjacks in Hestra, Sweden. Decades later, the business is run by the fourth generation Magnussons, and the commitment to make long-lasting gloves is as strong as ever.

Fabrik Ungern

Tillverkningen av skinnhandskar försvann i stora delar av Europa under 1900-talets andra hälft. Men i Ungern levde hantverket vidare. Hestra hade samarbetat med ungerska tillverkare sedan 1950-talet. För tio år sedan valde det småländska företaget att själva bygga upp en fabrik här.

Fabrik Kina Eurogrant

1993 valde Hestra att bygga upp en egen produktion i Kina. Ett viktigt steg för att kunna utvecklas som företag.

Fabrik Kina Pinghu

Utanför den kinesiska metropolen Shanghai har Hestra under många decennier producerat sina kvalitetshandskar och startade 2011 en joint venture med sin viktigaste leverantör. En handskhistoria om småländskt entreprenörskap och kinesisk hantverkstradition.

Fabrik Vietnam

I norra Vietnam fann Hestra goda förutsättningar för att tillverka sina handskar av högsta kvalitet. Det var framför allt människorna och hantverkskulturen som lockade det svenska familjeföretaget att här skapa en av världens modernaste handskfabriker.
