A PRACTICAL INDUSTRIAL PARTNER

Experience that turns customer requirements into working solutions

HF Smede combines hands-on workshop experience, product development and B2B manufacturing knowledge. Our work ranges from established product systems to one-off constructions made for a particular product, process or transport challenge.

The common thread is a close dialogue with the customer. Sometimes the starting point is a complete drawing. Sometimes it is a product sample, a few dimensions or an idea that needs to be developed. We help move the requirement towards a clear, practical and durable solution.

OUR HISTORY

More than 40 years of workshop knowledge and product development

The company has developed over time, while keeping its focus on useful solutions, solid workmanship and cooperation that lasts beyond the first delivery.

BUILT AROUND THE CUSTOMER

From first idea to a solution that fits the work

We take the time to understand how a product is handled, stored, transported or used in production. That understanding guides the design and the details we build into the solution.

  1. Start with your requirementSend a drawing, dimensions, photos, a product sample or simply describe the task.
  2. Develop the right constructionWe discuss the function, access, protection, handling and materials with you.
  3. Test and adjust when neededFor selected projects, a prototype or first unit can be tested before a larger order.
  4. Produce one or a larger seriesWe adapt the production to the project, from a single solution to larger quantities.
