Biocomposite

The Billund series is based on a bio-composite.

The material comes from a combination of wood cellulose fibers and the oils that are squeezed out of wood pulp when making paper.

The raw material can be traced back to sustainably managed forests and is "waste" from other industries.

We are proud to use a low carbon footprint alternative to traditional plastic that doesn't interfere with any food-production chain, unlike crop-based biomaterials.

1996

CrushGrind® Generation 2 was developed

Our second generation had improvements on the grinding experience. The ceramic cone of our first generation had a pentagon shape. The second generation had 3+3 teeth. This development refined the grinding experience.

2006

CrushGrind® Generation 3 was launched

The third generation of CrushGrind® was named Diamond. The shape of the ceramic cone had similarities to the shape of a diamond. And with the third generation we increased the hardness of the ceramic parts.

2015

The CrushGrind® Collection was brought to the market

The CrushGrind® Collection was introduced to the market in 2015.

The CrushGrind® Collection consists of innovative and functional household products. We combine Nordic design aesthetics with functionality, innovation and high-quality.

Our products are durable and produced in materials that are responsibly sourced, promoting fair labor practices.

We wish to inspire consumers to be more creative in the kitchen, trying new recipes and adding variety to meals.

Each product is crafted with care and creativity to bring a touch of playfulness into the kitchen.

2017

CrushGrind® Generation 4 was introduced to the market

Generation 4 was developed in 2017 and was named Quadro. The shape of our Quadro ceramic cone seen from the top is a square, thus the name Quadro.

With Quadro technology we refined the grinding experience and improved the particle grinding size.

CrushGrind® Quadro is patented technology.

2025

CrushGrind® Generation 5

We are in the process of developing next generation of CrushGrind® mechanisms. Expected launch is 2025.

VALUES

THINK BIG

Right from our birth, and into the future too, we think, act and do business with an international mindset and approach – focusing on ideas, products and services that are scalable and suited for the global market space.

LEAVE NOTHING TO CHANCE

We find, that fortune always seems to favour the most thorough. So that is simply what we commit ourselves and each other to be, in all aspects of what we do.

ASPIRE TO INSPIRE

Being a true inspiration to others and igniting partners, customers, fans, end-users and each other's creativity and growth is truly equally rewarding.

CURIOUS CREATORS

Curiosity never killed anyone. It rather makes sure, that we always look for new and better ways to do the stuff, that we do. Some even claim, that is how great inventions are made. We tend to agree. Stay curious and create.
