SKOVHUUS
FORTSAT EN FAMILIEVIRKSOMHED
Skovhuus Strik blev grundlagt i 1972, hvor
fabrikant Johannes Skovhuus etablerede sig
med en enkelt strikmaskine i ydmyge lokaler i
Hammerum ved Herning.
- Johannes Skovhuus var en af de ægte tekstil-
pionerer på egnen, som kørte ud og solgte
varer om dagen og producerede hjemme i
virksomheden om aftenen. Virksomheden
voksede efterhånden ud af de første lokaler,
og i 1980 blev Skovhuus’ bygninger i Birk ved
Herning opført. Og her holder vi fortsat til, for-
tæller Erik Bomholt Johansen.
Skovhuus Strik er fortsat på familien Skov-
huus’ hænder og drives af anden generation:
Camilla og Elisabeth Skovhuus.
SUMMARY
Skovhuus Strik is a Danish fashion company
that specialises in elegant knitwear for quality
and fashion-conscious women. Design, admi-
nistration, logistics and most of the produc-
tion take place in Denmark.
Skovhuus has a range of organic qualities in
their main collection and has also introduced
the line Organic Cotton by Skovhuus.
In 2020 Skovhuus is expecting to implement
a new sustainable initiative focusing on recy-
cling.
- The unique thing about Skov-
huus Strik is that we still ma-
nufacture almost everything at our factory in
Herning. We are proud to say that we follow
the production and each detail of the designs
very closely; from delivery of the yarn to the
finished style is ready for sale. Our collections
are known for high quality, beautiful designs,
and for being elegant and well fitted, Sales
and Marketing Manager Erik Bomholt Johan-
sen says.
Skovhuus Strik was founded in 1972, when
manufacturer Johannes Skovhuus establis-
hed his company with only a single knitting
machine in humble surroundings in Hamme-
rum, Herning.
- Johannes Skovhuus was one of the true tex-
tile pioneers in the region who drove around
selling his collection during the day and pro-
duced the items at the factory in the evenings.
It turned out that Johannes knew what he
was doing, because the company gradually
outgrew the original premises, and in 1980,
the company’s factory was built in the town
of Birk near Herning, where our main office is
still located, Erik Bomholt Johansen explains.
Today the company is still managed by the
Skovhuus family, and is run by second gene-
ration, Camilla and Elisabeth Skovhuus.
