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 220+ MEUR in turnover and more than 1000 employees globally.
Growth has been the leading star for Dellner Group historically and will so continue to be even in the future!

Dellner has set up a Whistleblowing system where employees and third parties may report serious suspected wrongdoings. The Whistleblowing system is provided by an independent third party called 2Secure.
Reporting through the system allows employees and external stakeholders to remain anonymous.

To file a report through 2Secure, the reporter will be required to enter the Dellner’s company code, “OKW080”. The 2Secure system will then give guidance on how to fill in the report. The reporter should save the individual code received which will allow the reporter to log on and follow up on the report and answer any follow-up questions.
