Sunnfjord Miljøverk
Sunnfjord Miljøverk (Sunnfjord Environmental Agency) is a municipally owned waste management company serving Sunnfjord, Fjaler, Hyllestad, and Askvoll in Norway. Responsible for around 29,000 residents, it collects and transports waste to a main facility at Einestølen (Hesjedalen), where materials are sorted and prepared for reuse, recycling, or safe disposal. Several recycling stations and an administrative office in Førde support efficient service throughout the region.
The recent visual identity for Sunnfjord Miljøverk, designed by Feed design studio in Oslo, underscores the company’s mission to promote environmental responsibility and community well-being. The design employs a thoughtful pairing of typefaces: Youth from AllCaps and Store Norske Skandia from Skriftkompani. Youth brings a fresh, contemporary energy to the brand, signalling optimism and forward-thinking ideals, while Store Norske Skandia provides clarity, approachability, and a sense of trustworthiness. Notably, Skandia was designed by Arve Båtevik, whose name is derived from Båtevika, located in the area where Sunnfjord Miljøverk operates and serves the local community through its waste management services. This typographic connection adds a layer of regional identity to the visual system.
