Workwear & Outdoor
Clothing and equipment from concept to finished product
Together with our designers and producers we manage the entire process from concept to finished product, or source from our existing portfolio of proven outdoor and workwear solutions.
From Concept to Finished Product
Bjarne Johnsen AS manages the full product development process for clothing and outdoor equipment. We take ownership of the project from the start: defining needs, finding the right producer in our international network, following up the development process, and ensuring quality control before delivery.
Specialty products made to a customer's specification are delivered directly to the customer's warehouse. We coordinate communication between customer and producer, manage the timeline, and handle import, customs clearance, and final delivery.
We have years of experience developing private label clothing and branded outdoor products for Norwegian customers, and understand the requirements for quality, function, and compliance with Norwegian and EU product standards.
Warehouse in Bergen, or Direct to You
For products we carry in stock - primarily seasonal outdoor items and standard workwear lines - we maintain inventory at our Bergen warehouse to ensure short delivery times for repeat orders.
For large volumes or customer-specific products, we can arrange direct shipment from the producer to the customer's warehouse, bypassing intermediate warehousing to reduce cost and delivery time.
We offer flexible arrangements suited to different customer profiles: standing orders for predictable stock requirements, or ad hoc sourcing for specific seasonal needs.

Specialty product, our best-selling item
Hardhaus fire escape ladder, folding evacuation ladder
We have manufactured and supplied the Hardhaus fire escape ladder for many years. It is a folding ladder for escaping buildings in case of fire. The ladder is mounted vertically to the exterior wall so it can be used to exit through a window, balcony, or similar.
The ladder is assembled from sections roughly 1200 mm long, delivered as a package containing a top, middle, and bottom section. Middle sections can be ordered separately. With all three sections, the ladder totals 3560 mm.
