HISTORY

With an history stretching back to The Beatles' era

Elektroautomatik was founded 1965 in Skövde by Åke Sjöberg, which was a time when industrialisation in the region was strong. In those days, a small enterprise focusing on consulting in electrical and control technology. Today, we are a turnkey supplier in the field of automation with great competence in all areas, from idea to end production.

The Gothenburg office opened

In 1979, Elektroautomatik started its operations in Gothenburg with a labour force of five people. At the same time, the office became the company’s head office.

In 1992, the company started a new era with Åke’s son, Johan Sjöberg, at the helm. At this time, the condition for the contact activities on the electrical and control side were created. A collaboration with Swedish Match became a breakthrough on to the market.

The 2000s with many new offerings

During the 2000s, Elektroautomatik has expanded strongly with both new premises and an expanded portfolio. In 2013, the company expanded its vision department and in 2014, the new EA Service department was added. Both with successful results immediately.

In the same year, it prepared for the future with new shareholders who bring the company a new breath of fresh air.
