In 2009, it established a manufacturing subsidiary in China to be closer to the Asian customers. In 2017, it decided to relocate the assembling phase of some product lines to its Swedish plant in Ljungby. The reshoring decision will reduce delivery times for European markets from 16 weeks to 2 days. At the same time, the company will reduce its exposure to the exchange risk. The relocation will be concluded by June 2018 after investing around 40 million SEK. The company announced the hiring of 50/60 unskilled employees, since assembling operations do not require any specific skill.
