Steelwrist hails ‘tremendous journey so far’ as firm marks 20 years

Steelwrist 20th anniversary event

STEELWRIST customers, partners and employees recently gathered at the firm’s HQ in Rosersberg, Sweden, to mark the manufacturer’s 20th anniversary.

The event included a factory tour and the chance to view the full product range, including the recently launched third generation tiltrotator models, the XTR15 and the XTR23, as well as the SQ40 automatic coupler.

Steelwrist was founded in 2005 and started life in a garage north of Stockholm. The company has grown to become a global player and has delivered products to thousands of customers worldwide. The focus remains the same as when the company was founded; to develop, manufacture and sell tiltrotators, quick couplers and work tools that make excavators more efficient.

To mark the anniversary, Steelwrist launched a movie highlighting the major milestones in the company’s history and featuring interviews with key company representatives.

“I’m thankful to all guests from near and far that took the time to join us and celebrate our first 20 years in business,” said CEO efan Stockhaus. “It has been a tremendous journey so far, that has been made possible thanks to our customers, partners and team members.

“With our latest product news, like the automatic couplers for compact excavators and the third generation tiltrotators, we are ready for the next 20 years and committed to bringing great solutions to customers all over the world.”

There was further cause for celebration when Steelwrist received Sweden’s Best Managed Companies recognition for the sixth consecutive year. The recognition is sponsored by Deloitte in partnership with Swedbank.

Best Managed Companies is a quality award given to private Swedish companies based on criteria that assess strategic direction, operational capacity, corporate culture, and financial development.

“We are very proud to receive the Sweden’s Best Managed Companies recognition for the sixth time, and it adds to the joy of celebrating our 20 years as a company,” Stefan Stockhaus added. “I believe that this award is a result of our unique culture, the commitment and hard work of our global team and our strive for continuous improvement throughout the company. This reaffirms that we are very well positioned to continue our successful journey also in the future.”
