Our Mission

Our mission is to overcome the talent supply shortage in the trades to empower the green energy transition in Europe. With over 3 million talented workers missing to empower the green energy transition incl. solar and heat pump installations, wall insulations, critical construction and building services, the opportunity to bring new talent into the trades has never been bigger.

At smalt, we hire and train future trade workers in our hybrid bootcamps and provide high quality installation services to B2B customers. Smalt’s workers are skilled and empowered with best-in-class technology to deliver the highest quality installation support to our partner companies.
