OUR OBJECTS
Handmade Danish boxes, covers and holders
We handcraft timeless, functional and aesthetic storage objects, for every individual storage need in today’s cluttered world.
Our boxes, covers and holders are made from natural surplus materials sourced from exclusive partners in the European
furniture and fashion industry.
OUR HERITAGE
August Sandgren (1893-1934)
Established in 1920, the company is named after its founder, the legendary bookbinder and box maker, August Sandgren. As the preeminent bookbinder and box-maker of his era, he was a true icon on the scale of Kaare Klint, Arne Jacobsen and Hans J. Wegner. He did for bookbinding and box-making what they did for Danish design furniture.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Using surplus materials
We craft our boxes, covers and holders from natural surplus materials sourced from exclusive partners in the European furniture and fashion industry. The use of surplus materials is an effort to reduce waste and utilize materials already in existence. Not only is it better for the planet, it gives access to materials of a quality much higher than otherwise available sourcing at the same price point.
Co-labs
Succeeding together
When humans interact and partnerships form, new thoughts and new objects emerge, merging the best of two worlds or more. We set high expectations for ourselves and each other, and when we succeed, it is because every partner, every individual, has contributed fully and to their best abilities. In many ways, August Sandgren is not a single company, but a collective of likeminded partners, sharing the same values, attitudes, and goals.
