Herenco’s corporate values  – The Herenco way

Herenco takes a long-term and responsible approach to its investments and has values which permeates all wholly owned companies in the group, as well as Emballator.

The Herenco way is simple, straight, and clear. Manifested in a forest-green bag from Småland, containing stones, pieces of wood and pinecones that represent the companies’ freedom to act outside the framework and find their own unique forms of expression.
