Dansk kvalitet og hensyn til miljøet er i vores øjne tæt forbundne, og begge dele er netop vores udgangspunkt i alt, hvad vi foretager os i Bastant. Vores mål er at udvikle langtidsholdbare produkter ud fra et gedigent værdigrundlag baseret på bevidste valg af materialer, produktion og transport.

Our values

Bastant's core value is to produce timeless and durable designs that, with their functionality, can last for years. We do away with the use-and-throw-away culture precisely with a design that is beautiful and simple, but also incredibly timeless. Our products are robust and made of durable materials, so in principle they should be able to last the rest of your lifetime.


Danish design and production

We develop and produce all our designs by hand in a Danish forge factory. We advocate the principle of local production at a time when we must protect the global - precisely by being more local. In this way, we avoid unnecessary transport, just as we are ensured proper working conditions during production.


Brass and reusability

Many of our designs are made of pure brass, which is a really good choice of material if you want a product with reusability and a long service life in mind. Brass is known for its durability and resistance to corrosion (degradation), making it an extremely long-lasting material. Brass is highly recyclable and resource-efficient, as it is made exclusively from shavings and scraps from other metals. The brass industry also depends on recycling from brass, as the material is far too expensive to just throw away, and as making new brass is incredibly expensive and a waste of raw materials.

Steel and recyclability

Steel is considered one of the most desirable, durable and environmentally friendly materials in the world. Producing new steel is not in itself environmentally friendly, but since steel is one of the materials that is easiest to recycle, it is considered sustainable. The life cycle of steel is potentially endless because it is easy to sort from other waste with magnets, because it is easy to recover from scrap, and because it can be reused again and again without losing its good properties.

FSC-labeled packaging

Our boxes for the kitchen roll holder are also designed and produced locally by the Danish company Flexiwell, and the box carries the FSC label, just like our shipping boxes. The FSC label is our guarantee that no more wood is cut than the forest can reproduce, just as the label ensures that animals and plants are protected and that the people who work in the forest are trained and work under proper pay and security conditions.
