A century of Axe forging 1902-2002
We would like to thank all those whom have worked at Gränsfors Bruks through out the last 100 years and shared their knowledge that is the base on which we now grow and develop. Age is not the important factor, what one can learn and how one uses that knowledge is. We all share in the responsibility to harness, use and protect the knowledge we obtained. Now it is the future we must look towards.

Responsibility for the total What we take, how and what we make, what we waste, is in fact a question of ethics. We have an unlimited responsibility for the Total. A responsibility which we try to take, but do not always succeed in. One part of this responsibility is the quality of the products and how many years the product will maintain its durability.
To make a high quality product is a way to pay respect and responsibility
to the customer and the user of the product. A high quality product,
in the hands of those who have learned how to use it and how
to look after it, will very likely be more durable. This is good
for the owner, the user. But this is good as well as part of
a greater whole: increased durability means that we take less
(decreased consumption of material and energy), that we need
to produce less (gives us more time to do other things we
think are important or enjoyable), destroy less (less
waste).
One of the goals for Gränsfors Bruks is to make high quality
durable products. As proof of this goal, and to show that we
have a responsibility for the product, Gränsfors Bruks gives
a 20 Year Product Guarantee. An "AXE-GUARANTEE-CARD"
is included in the AXE-BOOK which comes with every axe. A qualification
for the guarantee is that the advice in the AXE-BOOK is followed.
