Our DNA
From Farm to Foot
Our DNA is deeply rooted in a love for natural materials, uncompromising quality, and a responsible approach to production. It all began over 30 years ago when Nanny Glerup hand-felted the first pair of wool slippers for her husband, Ove. Since then, we have stayed true to our roots, building a company founded on craftsmanship, respect and functional design.
CRAFTED WITH CARE, EVERY STEP OF THE WAY
We take responsibility throughout our entire value chain - from how we care for our sheep to how we produce our products in our own factory in Romania. Here, we ensure fair working conditions, precision in production and a dedication to timeless design that lasts for years. We believe that nothing should go to waste.
"We work purposefully to use all bits and pieces from our carefully selected production materials. This has also always been Ove and Nanny’s philosophy and is now deeply integrated into our DNA. Our entire value chain is built with respect for people, animal and nature.
We are constantly working to streamline and upgrade our production and products the journey never stops, and we never compromise with our DNA.”
- Allan Timm, glerups
OUR JOURNEY CONTINUES
At glerups, we never stop evolving. We are constantly working to improve our production, minimize waste and invest in technology that supports our core values. With a Cradle to Cradle mindset, we strive to create a circular journey for our materials, ensuring that everything we use is treated with care and respect for nature, animals and people - and that will never change.
