Fristads

<h2>About Fristads</h2>

<p>Fristads has challenged and driven the development of durable and functional workwear since 1925, having driven the evolution of workwear for 100 years. The company was founded by John Magnuson, who came up with the idea of manufacturing workwear himself, and by 1929, Fristads was the first company in Sweden to make jeans and also the first company to offer an entire range of workwear, including trousers, <a href="https://droppe.com/de-en/products/category/c_clothing/c_bib-overalls">bib'n'braces coveralls</a>, <a href="https://droppe.com/de-en/products/category/c_clothing/c_jackets">blouses and coats</a>.</p>

<p>The garments quickly grew in popularity among dockers, bricklayers, carpenters, painters and other professional craftsmen, and by the late 20th century, Fristads was Sweden's largest workwear manufacturer. In 2020, Hultafors Group acquired Fristads, continuing the brand's legacy in professional workwear.</p>

<h2>What Product Categories Does Fristads Offer?</h2>

<h3>Safety Equipment and Protective Clothing</h3>
<p>The portfolio includes work trousers, jackets, coveralls, <a href="https://droppe.com/de-en/products/category/c_clothing/c_safety-vests">high-visibility clothing</a>, <a href="https://droppe.com/de-en/products/category/c_clothing/c_base-layer-shirts">rainwear, base layers</a>, safety shoes and functional accessories. Fristads workwear is designed to withstand harsh conditions and provides protection from hazards such as heat, flames, electrical discharge, chemicals and other workplace risks. The company proudly introduced Fristads Green High Visibility – the first environmentally declared high-vis collection in the world, made of recycled and organic materials and produced in a way that minimises the impact on the environment, without sacrificing quality or comfort.</p>

<h3>Professional Clothing and Workwear</h3>
<p>Their range of clothing includes classic as well as contemporary garments for a wide range of industries and the garments are made to meet the highest standards when it comes to quality, safety and comfort. The extensive range includes <a href="https://droppe.com/de-en/products/category/c_clothing/c_work-pants">high-visibility trousers</a>, coveralls, <a href="https://droppe.com/de-en/products/category/c_clothing/c_lightweight-jackets">softshell jackets</a>, flame-resistant clothing, accessories and more, manufacturing a variety of functional workwear and PPE including high-quality ARC & flame-resistant clothing for men and women working in various industries and environments.</p>

<p>In the 1940's John Magnusson developed a material called FAS®, an exceptionally dense and durable cotton weave, and the company continues to choose the best functions and materials for their garments, developing new materials themselves when they cannot find what they need.</p>

<h2>How Does Fristads Approach Sustainability?</h2>

<p>In 2019, Fristads became the first company in the world to develop an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for clothes, and that same year launched their first environmentally declared workwear, with the EPD allowing the environmental impact of a garment to be measured and minimised in every step of the value chain.</p>

<p>The company demonstrates sustainability that matters through OEKO-TEX®-certified materials, reduced-water dyeing and transparent supply-chain audits that minimise environmental impact without compromising performance. Fristads strives to produce products that meet high environmental standards and are made from recycled or recyclable materials, with the company committed to responsible business practices and working continuously to reduce its impact on the environment.</p>
