On the basis of extensive experience from Volvo Aero, he had the courage to bank on his own enterprise, and his business philosophy was simple: his company was to manufacture complicated components that demanded knowledge of shaping by cutting for the aeronautical industry. No sooner said than done. However, the company quickly expanded its area of operations and gradually became a world leader in the manufacture of tools for making vehicle tyres. The customer in this case was Gislaveds D\u00e4ck, and Tooltec continued to grow.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Two become one<\/h3>\n<p>History was written again in 2006 when Tooltec acquired the Trollh\u00e4ttan-based enterprise H\u00f6gmans Industri Verktyg. A company steeped in tradition that was founded in 1947 by Elis H\u00f6gman. This company, too, supplied specialist tools to the aeronautical industry \u2013 which suited Tooltec down to the ground \u2013 and on account of the shared knowledge and experience of the two companies, this was truly a match made in heaven. In just the same way as our customers are developing, our business continues to expand, and another major deal was closed on 1 April 2014. Claes Haraldsson, CEO of the company, teamed up with Lars Dahl, owner of Sibbhultsverken and Lars Sj\u00f6berg, who owned Elektroautomatik AB, and purchased Tooltec from Bertil Lindahl.<\/p>\n<p>In April 2016, Lars Dahl left Tooltec, and the rest is history. Two companies became one, and the entire operation is now run under one and the same roof at the facility on Kardanv\u00e4gen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The story of Tooltec Solitude is strength?
