Work with us

BDM USA with the opportunity to become responsible for Zilenzio Corporation

About the Company

Zilenzio is a successful Swedish and female private owned company with a passion for improving the work environment. We develop and deliver high-quality sound absorption through well-thought-out and designed solutions. Our products are the result of our long experience in sound environment design, analysis of office environments and testing in accordance with international standards. We have made many workplaces into first-rate acoustic environments, and our employees have extensive knowledge of sound absorption and the acoustic properties of various materials. We currently have 26 employees and are headquartered in Örebro in Sweden. At Zilenzio, the comfort and wellbeing of our staff are seen as a basic prerequisite for achieving our goals.

Zilenzio’s products consist of sound absorbers for the office and public environment. Our products are manufactured in Sweden, Poland and Lithuania.  We currently have Zilenzio staff representatives in Sweden, Norway, Germany, Finland and the USA. We also have dealers and agents in another 20 countries.

Since 2020, Zilenzio has a US subsidiary, and since the end of 2020 an exclusive agreement with Allsteel in the US, of which we are very proud. Since October 2021, we can proudly say that our on-site staff in the USA have visited all our priority resellers and A&D companies around the country. Currently, all our products are made in Europe, but we are now looking at starting up production closer to the American market. The response from customers, architects, resellers and Allsteel has been absolutely wonderful, and that is why we now seek to hire a key person to continue our efforts to build the Swedish Zilenzio brand together with our US Team Marisa, Jonas and Marie.
