Knowledge that shapes more than metal
Since 1937, we have developed our knowledge of sheet metal, materials, tools, and forming. Today, we combine long experience with modern production, a wide range of machinery, and employees with great technical expertise. This allows us to take on everything from a single manufacturing challenge to a larger responsibility for the journey from design to finished product. Close collaboration, technical knowledge, and the ability to find the right path to production have followed Ingelsten through generations.
A collaboration that begins where you are in the process
Customers come to us at different stages. Someone has an idea, another has a finished design or an existing tool. Regardless of the starting point, we contribute the right expertise to advance the product towards stable and efficient production.
-
Idea or sketch
We discuss function, material, and possible manufacturing methods and help to find a way from idea to producible detail.
-
Finished construction
Together with the customer, we customize and optimize the detail based on material, geometry, tolerances, and manufacturing method.
-
Existing tool
If you already have the tool, we can continue from there. We evaluate the conditions for production and have internal expertise for customization, service, and maintenance.
-
Ready for production
When construction and tools are already in place, we focus on stable, repeatable, and cost-effective production.
Quality at every step
Quality is an obvious part of all our work – from design and material selection to manufacturing, inspection, and delivery. It should be evident in what we produce, but also in how we work.
With stable processes, meticulous controls, and a strong quality consciousness within the organization, we create consistent quality and reliable deliveries. Our employees take responsibility for quality in their daily work and to ensure that every detail meets the established requirements.
For us, quality is built over time. It is about precision in manufacturing, control in processes, and ensuring that every delivery meets what we have promised.

Environment – resources should be used where they are most beneficial
Our environmental work begins in the construction phase and continues throughout the entire production process. Through smart material choices, efficient material use, well-planned processes, and continuous improvement efforts, we strive to reduce waste, energy consumption, and unnecessary resource use.
Our material knowledge allows us to evaluate different options together with the customer. The right material, thickness, and construction can reduce weight and material usage while ensuring the product's function and lifespan.
In our own production, it is about using materials and machines efficiently, planning flows smartly, and minimizing unnecessary steps. Through a close network of partners in the region, we can also keep many processes geographically close to each other and create shorter, more cohesive production flows.
Metals can be recycled and returned as raw materials in new products. For us, a long-term production perspective therefore involves the entire chain – from design and material choice to production, resource management, and what happens after the product's lifespan.
Our values
Our values should be evident in everyday life - in how we work together, meet our customers, and take responsibility for what we deliver.
-
Openness
We listen, are curious, and open to new ideas. Good solutions are created when knowledge, experience, and different perspectives come together.
-
Honesty
We are straightforward, clear, and stand by our word. It builds trust and long-term relationships.
-
Respect
We take people's knowledge, needs, and conditions seriously. A professional collaboration begins with listening and understanding.
-
Trust
We take responsibility, help each other, and share our knowledge. This creates security and makes it easier to solve challenges together.
-
Order and tidiness
Structure creates efficiency. Clear processes, good communication, and control at every step provide quality, reliability, and security.
Sheet metal forming since 1937
A lot has changed since 1937 – materials, machines, technology, and production requirements. What remains is the knowledge of tools and sheet metal forming, the curiosity for better solutions, and the willingness to develop together with our customers.
Long experience. New challenges.
We have been shaping sheet metal since 1937. What drives us forward is still the next detail, the next idea, and the next smarter solution.
