In 1933, Björn, Alvar and Arvid Kjellström invented the first ever liquid-filled compass, and this story began. Not only was it the first compass of its kind, but it also set the global standard for how navigation works upon today. Then, in 1935, we launched our first headlamp – Zeiler – and the SILVA brand was born. Still to this day, they develop products for people who spend time on outdoor activities, regardless if the activity is high pulse like running, skiing, commuting to school or work. With our products, you can go anywhere you want, at any time of the day, and in any conditions.
