The story of Espegard®
Far out in the wildest Norwegian forest, around an atmospheric campfire, we got our first idea for a wooden sack around 1985. The family business Espegard, which started with 2 employees, has today become a successful company with over 20 employees. We have a turnover of 20 million dollars, and from the simple wooden sack our range has grown to over 150 different products. At Espegard, we have an extreme passion for making sustainable outdoor products that help people enjoy the simple, relaxing life outdoors.
The heart of outdoor meetings
For us, it is important to contribute to an active and meaningful life outdoors. In the early 2000s, we developed the most amazing place for a campfire, Espegard's campfire pan - the obvious first choice for campfires and grilling among many Norwegians. The campfire pan has its own ability to create unforgettable moments and a peaceful atmosphere, such as a cozy garden party, nice birthday parties and otherwise in everyday life.
Embrace the freedom of the outdoors
Whether you are high in the mountains, in a cabin in the forest or by the sea, or at home in the garden, your time outdoors, preferably with a coffee pot hanging over a campfire, provides space for reflection, new thoughts and inspiration. We want everyone to experience this enriching freedom. At Espegard, we embrace the past, celebrate the present and look forward to the future. With campfires and outdoor products as our driving force, we continue to create heartwarming stories.
Owatrol – protection that lasts for generations
In Sweden, Espegard is also responsible for Owatrol, a brand that shares our philosophy of quality and long-term sustainability. Owatrol's products are known for their unique ability to preserve and protect wood, metal and other materials against the ravages of time and the forces of nature.
Just like our fireplaces and outdoor products, Owatrol is designed to withstand life outdoors, year after year. With the right treatment, wood becomes more beautiful over time, and metals retain their strength and shine. That's why Owatrol is a natural complement to Espegard's universe – it helps our customers enjoy sustainable outdoor experiences for many decades to come.
For us, it's not just about products, but about giving people the freedom to care for, preserve and develop their patios and leisure environments. With Owatrol as part of our range, we can offer complete solutions where function, aesthetics and longevity go hand in hand.
