Once upon a Christmas

From Finnish fairy-tale beginnings, Weiste has become one of the most trusted names in the festive trade, with decorative product as magical as its company heritage. And its 2023 Christmas collection is no exception…

Weiste has been a market leader in the design and manufacture of Christmas decorations since the company started life in Helsinki way back in 1924.

And it’s fitting that the company was born in Finland, the land of Santa Claus, because the story behind it would make for a great seasonal fairytale told to children around the fire. Think an entrepreneurial father who saw an opportunity to make beautiful decorations in his homeland, the inspiration of bringing joy to others and generations of one family who helped to build the business from the ground up.

Today Weiste still holds its envied reputation for excellent customer service and reliability, and has been trading in the UK for more than 40 years.

Eco Christmas Pioneers

Weiste is a market leader in the use of bio-based material technologies in traditional Christmas decorations. Products from its Eco Christmas collection are produced use high quality and innovative materials based on extensive research – with stunning results.

Long lasting products

One of the company’s core values is making longlasting seasonal products that are much better for the environment precisely because they can be handed down from generation to generation. A winning combination of superior materials and harnessing renewable natural resources in production, means Weiste’s products are helping to build a more sustainable future.

Strive to do better

Weiste is just at the beginning of the company’s journey toward becoming carbon neutral. Taking steps in the right direction the team aims to build towards a more sustainable future, and communicate openly with customers at every stage about the ongoing plans.

Environmentally friendly materials

Weise is now incorporating bio-based plastics into its portfolio of beautiful Christmas products – a material that uses renewable natural resources in the production process. One challenge has been for the business to incorporate this into very different products, ranging from pieces with glass-like transparency to more ornamental decorations. And of course Weiste’s envied reputation for creating designs that last must be factored in as well.

The bio-based plastic used in Weiste products is responsibly produced wood and the company is rightly proud of its product development and ecological innovation. The inspiration behind the Eco Collection was to design holistic ecological products. Weiste is determined to be the industry leaders in environmental Christmas decorations.
