A niche aluminium company

ProfilGruppen is a Swedish company that markets, develops and manufactures customised aluminium extrusions and components. By delivering clever solutions in aluminium, we are contributing to our customers’ success. Our head office is located in Åseda in Småland, Sweden, which is where our activities first started 28 years ago. These years, and our future, are characterised by quality awareness, efficiency, customer focus and last but not least entrepreneurship. The Group currently has around 400 employees and we operate primarily in the Western European market.

Aluminium – the material of the future

We are working with one of the world’s greatest materials – aluminium. Aluminium, the third most common element in the earth’s crust after oxygen and silicon, is low weight, good strength and good durability. It offers excellent corrosion resistance and is easy to work and use, particularly in a construction environment. Furthermore, its good recycling properties guarantee a low environmental impact.

Processed products in focus

We are aiming to increase the share of processed products, which should promote greater profitability and a larger marketfor the company. Processing is performed partly in-house and partly by a network of external suppliers. The production facilities for manufacture and processing of aluminium extrusions are modern and cost-effective, and offer high productivity.

Improved positions on the European market

Our chief market is Western Europe, and we intend to grow at a faster rate than the market over the coming years. This means that we must increase our market presence. We have excellent foundations for organic growth – since the company’s introduction onto the stock exchange in 1997, we have invested just over MSEK 450 in our activities. At the same time, we are considering company acquisitions that are capable of strengthening our core business, both through closer proximity to customers and an expanded product range.

Stable and profit-generating business

ProfilGruppen is a profitable company – it has produced a profit each year since it was founded in 1981. Our sensitivity to economic trends is moderated by the fact that our customers are from several different industries and operate on different markets, as well as that our product mix contains products with a varying degree of processing.

Generous dividend policy produces annual dividends

Our overall aim is to give our shareholders a high total yield, partly through share dividends and partly through increased share value. Our dividend policy is to distribute 40-50 per cent of the profit after tax calculated over an economic cycle.
