About Instalco

Instalco was formed on the initiative of its CEO, Per Sjöstrand, in February 2014 by a consolidation of five installation companies, each with long and successful history. Instalco’s business concept is to be able, through cooperation between locally leading and highly specialised units, to offer competitive multi-disciplinary solutions, while the same time achieving coordination benefits. Since its formation the Company has demonstrated strong growth (Instalco has increased its revenue more than fourfold between 2014 and 2016), driven primarily by acquisitions but also through organic growth. The positive effects of coordination have become visible through, for example, collaboration within multi-disciplinary projects and purchasing cooperation. Instalco’s ability to offer multidisciplinary installation and service solutions provides a safer and better coordinated offering to customers. The Company has a decentralised structure aimed at encouraging a strong entrepreneurial spirit and although the Company itself is relatively young, its units possess long experience of complex installations in various environments and within several disciplines. Pro forma for the 2016 financial year, Instalco had net sales of SEK 2,852 million and an adjusted EBITA  of SEK 219 million, corresponding to an adjusted EBITA margin of 7.7 percent.
