Primus was started way back in 1892 and is now a very well established brand name. Primus is Latin and means ‘the best’ and proof of the brand awareness is that Primus in Russia is now synonymous to, or carries
the meaning of, ‘portable kitchen’.
Throughout the years Primus has become well known for its outdoor products used for cooking, heating and giving light. Initially Primus worked primarily with bottled gas products but today they have widened their collection to include products using petrol and paraffin oil.

Eta Power, the cooking collection by Primus, is widely recognised due to its high efficiency. The heat transfer is increased due to a metal flange that has been added under the pot to better capture the heat. This saves fuel, weight and is more environmentally friendly.
Recently Primus has widened their product range and today one can say that Primus manufacture goods which make outdoor life and camping in to a comfortable experience. The old saying ”cooking, heating and lighting” is no longer enough to describe what the company does as it now even makes tents and rubber boats.(!)
Eta Power has all the attributes of becoming a real classic and it has already won several awards. Primus lanterns have also been on the best seller list for many years. We have also noticed an increased interest in Primus tents. We feel that their family tents are best value-for-money and they are very suitable for camping.
