I had the pleasure of interviewing Lämneå Bruk’s sales team Jonas Hagstedt, Stefan Petersson, Magnus Hellqvist, and John Lindh to delve into the highlights and achievements of 2023, as well as the company's vision for the future.

For those yet unfamiliar, Lämneå Bruk is a historic company in the field of wire machinery with profound roots in the history of Swedish steelmaking. From its headquarters in Ljusfallshammar, the family business has not only innovated wire machinery technology but has also earned a global reputation, with a vast array of units and lines delivered worldwide. 


Can you start by sharing the motivation behind Lämneå Bruk's expansion in 2023?
Certainly. In response to the rising demand for our machines, we embarked on a strategic expansion. Substantial investments were directed toward strengthening our operational infrastructure, resulting in an expanded facility. This move reflects our commitment to excellence and addresses the increasing demands of our diverse customer base.

What significant investments have been made in the past year?
Our pursuit of excellence extends beyond infrastructure to the core of our operations. In 2023, we spared no effort in acquiring and integrating state-of-the-art automated machines and equipment. This technological investment is set to enhance our operational capabilities, maintaining our products' industry-leading standards for quality and innovation.

The past year has seen your engagement at various trade shows (e.g., Interwire, wire Southeast Asia, Cable and Wire Fair India, and TOHO wire show). How have these personal interactions with industry peers contributed to Lämneå Bruk's success?
Interacting directly with our partners and colleagues in face-to-face settings facilitated enriching conversations, nurturing connections that extend beyond routine business transactions. These personal engagements play a crucial role in propelling mutual growth and success for our business.
