About the name VANA

VANA derives from the word Vanaheim - the one of the nine worlds known from Norse mythology, which, it is said, exists after Ragnarok and to which the Aesir return.

In the same way, VANA works to ensure that our world will continue to exist: We promote environmentally friendly packaging by keeping resources in circulation for as long as possible.
