VISION

It all started in a small forge in central Stockholm in 1892 where two men named Frans W. Lindqvist and Johan Victor Svenson sought to find the solution to the sooty kerosene stove of the time. Together, they created the world’s first soot-free stove that boiled water seven times faster and was much healthier than previous stoves. The pioneering invention came to be called Primus, which is Latin for “first”. Even today, we strive to create more efficient stoves that not only last a lifetime (or longer), but that also leave as little impact on both the environment and people as possible. 

At Primus, we have a production philosophy that is about creating products that reduce the need to buy new. The longer a Primus product lasts, the lower the climate impact. The cornerstones of our production are thus sustainability and efficiency.

EFFICIENCY

A Primus stove must not only last a long time in terms of design, but also meet reliability requirements in terms of use. This allows you to cook your food as quickly as possible, carry as little gas as possible with you and at the same time, have as little impact on the environment as possible.

OUR LONG-TERM SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES

Our vision is to set new standards for outdoor cooking. We strive to make each adventure even more sustainable through efficient, recyclable and environmentally friendly materials.

RENEWABLE FUEL

Our long-term goal is to implement renewable fuel and phase out fossil fuel as well as fossil-based plastics. We strive to lead the way towards a greener future with every step we take!
