IIS is a company with a strong entrepreneurial spirit, and it has shown impressive performances in recent years. With an established position across several of Lesjöfors’ key customer segments, IIS not only has an attractive and diversified customer base, it’s products also enhance our product portfolio, by strengthening our disc spring offering. We look forward to continuing to develop the company in the coming years.”

He concludes: “My family and I are proud of the company we have built, and we want to thank our employees, partners and customers.
