We think it should be easy to just pack your gear and head outside! And so did Ingvar Svantesson in 1979. He decide it was time to improve the conditions for hikers, campers and all other outdoor enthusiast, by reducing the camp wear to a minimum. Function was crucial to the design. It had to be as lightweight, durable and compact as possible.
Ingvar shared his vision with Jan Andersson, a former captain in the Swedish Army. Jan understood that this type of product needed to work even in the most primitive conditions.
Together they introduced a new age of tableware and accessories to the outdoor world.
Ensuring high standers regarding quality and material along with respect for the human and environmental resources, the duo decided to manufacture the products in the local surroundings of there home, Borås, Sweden. Now more than 35 years later this is still one of our prime guide lines.
In 2011, the company was handed over to Erik Andersson, Jan’s son. Still located in Borås, Sweden, the company was officially named Wildo®, Honoring everything that’s wild about us and the WILD Outdoors. We are combining the many years of experience whit innovative ideas to create the Wildo® you can se today. Hope you will join us on our journey.
