For three generations, the company has been working to supply both the Swedish and international markets with high quality products. Today, around half of the company\u2019s sales come from exports. Our strength lies in helping customers find the best solution for their needs\u2014both economically and technically. Quality is important to us, and we are certified according to FR2000 for quality and environmental management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The company\u2019s history dates back to 1960<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time, the company operated under the name Bil City and focused on trading new and used cars as well as auto repairs.<br>At the end of  1960s, the company stopped selling new-car and invested in an expanded-metal machine. Production began a few years later, and in 1972 the company changed its name to Expandermetall AB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1978, the company moved to its current premises in Hestra. At that time, Sixten Andersson was the owner managing director of the company; in 1988, Christer Horte took over the management. Today, Christer\u2019s son Andreas Holmberg is the owner and managing director of Expandermetall.<br>The company operates from its own facilities just outside Tran\u00e5s, between J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping and Link\u00f6ping. It is located close to a wide network of flexibles suppliers in the Ydre region and has good transport links in all directions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">We keep our promises<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>That may sound obvious. But  it has never been more importan to put the customer first. For us at Expandermetall, it has always mattered.
