From steel wire to smart
coating solutions
The Törefors family’s entrepreneurial spirit dates back to the 16th century. Early in the 19th century they founded their first steel wire company, and in the 1930s, business expanded internationally. Initial products for the coating industry were manufactured in the mid-1970s.
In 1989, a new generation succeeded, and since then development has accelerated with further specialization for the coating industry. New products have been launched, new services have been introduced, and new markets have been discovered. And above all, a multitude of smart solutions for better and more efficient coating have seen the light of day.
