Our Culture & Values

Our employees are Dellner Group’s most valuable asset. As long-term investors in entrepreneurial companies, we see it as utmost important to maintain independence, customer focus and cost control within each of our business.

We are committed to our values and see them as key success factors in how we develop, grow and manage our businesses.

Industrial expertise since 1937

Dellner Group is the result of a 90-year entrepreneurial journey starting with the engineer Mr. Jan Dellner in 1937 when he established a small production facility in Sweden manufacturing automatic train couplers dedicated to the Swedish market. The first foreign order was already in 1948 and since then has the global footprint grown constantly with both new industries, businesses, products and services to where we are today.

Significant for the Dellner Group investments is the long-term ownership that follows when investments have been done in entrepreneurial companies and during those first 90 years has only one business been sold. In 2019, the coupler business was divested to the Swedish private equity company EQT and is from then fully disconnected from the current Dellner Group. 

Growth – the leading star

In 2016, Dellner Group as it looks today was formed and had at that time a turnover of 3 MEUR and 16 employees. By investments and acquisitions are those numbers today 250+ MEUR in turnover and more than 1100 employees globally.

Growth has been the leading star for Dellner Group historically and will so continue to be even in the future!

Sustainability

We are taking an industrial lead in developing our business in a sustainable way and help our costumers do the same. Our business shall be the costumers first choice for sustainable solutions and installations.
