Albo System Sweden AB
The story behind the blue pile turner
History
Improving ergonomics since 1989
Albo System was founded by Kurt Alfredsson with a clear vision: to safeguard the health and working conditions of employees while improving production efficiency—a tradition deeply rooted in Sweden. The first pile turner reduced the physical strain on staff and quickly became a sales success, encouraging Kurt to build a company around this innovative system.
In 1989, the company was acquired by Göran Alfredsson and Håkan Johansson, two young engineers who further developed the pile turning system to make it even more ergonomic and efficient. Their focus on innovation and quality laid the foundation for Albo System’s future success.
