I’m very proud of being a part of the Elding family, as sustainable responsibility has always been a part of the company’s business plan and strategy. I strongly believe that to be able to conquer today’s problems of climate change, and decline of biological diversity, the work starts with yourself. The responsibility is within yourself, for the planet and your own happiness.
