History

Today, Scandiavian WeldTech is a privately owned business group, with roots in the old ironworks in mid Sweden. In the early 1950's, construction of building elements began in the small town of Smedjebacken, and from there the SWT group has evolved.

In 1990, the construction element section of Fundia AB in Smedjebacken was formed into a separate company, which subsequently was bought by the current owner, Mikael Widmark, in 1993. The company also changed name to Scandinavian WeldTech AB as a preparation for an expanded market.

In 1999 we moved to our current, larger facilities in Borlänge. This enabled further expansion, and an important deal with Nordland Betingelement A/S in Norway was struck. The have since then represented Scandinavian WeldTech in northern Norway.

The success continued and Scandinavian WeldTech A/S in Denmark was formed in 2005, as a first step in building the business group. SWT A/S serves Denmark with sales and construction work, while the components are delivered from the production units.

The expansion of the market paid off, so to ensure our delivery capacity Scandinavian WeldTech GmbH, Germany, was formed in 2006. The office and production unit in Rostock serves the local market with sales and construction work. The production unit delivers to both Germany and Scandinavia.
