Oh, so who are you? The question crops up now and then, mostly at trade fairs abroad.

And the answer is automatically “Oh well, Zero is a family company that makes and

sells attractive lighting fittings for all spaces. We use the latest technologies and are

innovative problem-solvers…”. But then the follow-up question sometimes cuts us

off “But why do your products look the way they do?”. That’s when we really get to talk about what

Zero does so specially. So uniquely.

Imagine a barren winter landscape in deepest Scania. The darkness, nigh impenetrable when the

clouds cover the moonlight.

But as it does penetrate, the glitter of the snow is all the more magical. That’s what we are trying

to capture at Zero. Just as much as its opposite — the soft sheen of Nordic summer light, which is

not only the delight of artists. From light, dark and the shadows in our environment, we and our

designers create the unique Zero range. Where we are — in Pukeberg, outside Nybro, the hub of

Swedish glass production, and the area where 80 percent of our subcontractors are, right by us.

Of course, our history contributes to our identity — how, in 1978, our founders long experience of

glass yielded to an entire decade devoted almost entirely to perforated sheet metal fittings. Because

the designer Börge Lindau was clearly decided that this very sheet metal should contribute to Zero’s

being both noticed and recognised as a modern, innovative and forward-looking company. And how

right he was. Expansion occurred, and from its original garage, the company moved to an industrial

zone in central Nybro and successful collaboration ensued with the designer Per Sundstedt, who

preferred to design glass fittings.

The years passed, and in 2005, a whole new period began in Zero’s life. We started collaborating with

the most recognized Swedish designers of the day, such as Mattias Ståhlbom, Thomas Bernstrand,

Fredrik Mattson and Front. Now we were also ready to appear in an international setting, at the

Milan Salone del Mobile. We have carried on doing that, and our successes have led to almost half of

our fittings being designed from 2005 onwards.

Today, Zero is an internationally well-established company with designers from near and far.

We have mastered several different materials, which we don’t mind matching with the latest

technologies. And we produce it all where we started, with the ambition of creating that little bit

more. The surprisingly unexpected. The unique.
