esjöfors has been making springs since 1852 although the company itself goes back even further – to 1675, in fact. Today it is an international supplier of a full range of standard and bespoke springs, as well as wire and strip components, with manufacturing operations in Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Germany, the UK, Latvia, and China. Since 1989 the company has been part of Beijer Alma, a Swedish-headquartered international group that focuses on component production and industrial supplies. Lesjöfors’ operations are organised in three business areas – Industrial Springs (standard springs and customised products made from wire), Flat Strip Components (springs and other components made from flat materials) and Chassis Springs (aftermarket for springs for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles). The largest customer
segments are Industrial Springs, where it has about 40 per cent of the Nordic market, and Chassis Springs, which account for some 45 per cent of the same market. Lesjöfors Automotive produces an extensive range of springs for the European car and light commercial vehicle market; in addition to replacement coil springs, it also stocks market-leading ranges of gas, leaf and sport springs for supply to parts wholesalers and distributors across Europe and worldwide.

Lesjöfors springs are used in just about every industry sector, from automotive, aerospace and telecoms to power generation, offshore and paper and pulp.
