Storskogen automation company secures major order

In recent years, Detab Ecomat has undergone a transformation journey, evolving from a family-owned industrial company into a modern innovation partner for global customers. This development has been crucial in enabling this large-scale project and lays the foundation for the company’s continued competitiveness.

Innovation enabling sustainable transition
The project is part of the customer’s global production shift from plastic to paperboard – a strategic step to meet the market’s growing sustainability demands. To respond to these new conditions, Detab Ecomat has made a significant technological leap and developed a new generation of solutions that combine high performance with maximum flexibility.

“We are incredibly proud of this collaboration. It is clear proof that our focus on team spirit, innovation and efficiency truly makes a difference – not only for us as a company, but also in demonstrating how automation can contribute to a more sustainable industry”, says Johanna Larsson, CEO of Detab Ecomat.

The journey — from tradition to transformation
Detab Ecomat is a subsidiary of Storskogen’s business unit PV Systems, a supplier of advanced automation solutions. The add-on acquisition of Detab Ecomat to PV Systems has been part of Storskogen’s strategy of adding smaller companies with niche expertise and growth potential, in order to expand offerings and create synergies. Automation is one of Storskogen’s prioritised investment themes, which serve as key drivers for a significant part of the existing business group and have strong growth potential.

Together with PV Systems and Storskogen, Detab Ecomat has over the past three years built a new organisation characterised by forward-thinking, structure and technical expertise. These investments have aimed to meet a new type of customer – players that demand an international level of project management, technology and quality.

“This is an example of how the right type of ownership, knowledge transfer and targeted investments can create leverage that enables world-class business opportunities. We now see the first clear proof of our efforts as Detab secures this major contract worth roughly five times its annual net sales”, says Roger Käll, CEO of PV Systems.
