Our vision is a balanced acoustic environment for every workplace. The material we use as insulation in our products is an environmentally friendly natural material, that has the same sound absorption qualities as snow. The wood we use comes mainly from the Swedish forests north of our factories in Örebro. Every Zilenzio panel represents a small piece of Scandinavian nature. Starting the company 10 years ago, Marie Lindqvist-Pahlstad and Jenny Helldén are today well established within the industry, known for running a professional and caring company with world class products. “We sell sound-absorbing functionality with an edge, and no one can beat us”. says Marie who is the CEO of Zilenzio.

They are a great to bring into the IWEC network of awardees, and role models for women’s business development efforts in Sweden.  We are further honoured to be an active part of IWEC, and to participate in this year’s conference and celebrate IWEC’s 10th anniversary, a milestone for global women’s entrepreneurship,” stated Charlotte Kalin, CEO of The Chamber Trade Sweden.
