STARK to cooperate with Øveraasen in Sweden and Norway

Øveraasen becomes importer for Finnish STARK in Sweden and Norway

As of October 1, 2025, Øveraasen Sverige AB, the Swedish subsidiary of Øveraasen AS, will be the importer for Finnish manufacturer STARK Lametal OY. The agreement gives Øveraasen full responsibility for sales, spare parts, support, and after-sales services for STARK’s entire product range in Sweden and Norway.

This strategic partnership is an important step in strengthening the position in the Nordic market for road and property maintenance. The goal is to combine STARK’s renowned quality products with Øveraasen’s local presence and market leading service.

A partnership built on shared values

The collaboration is founded on shared values of quality, long-term commitment, and customer focus. STARK is known for its robust and functional products, designed specifically for demanding Nordic conditions. Combined with Øveraasen’s deep expertise and established service network, the market gains an unbeatable total package.

STARK work equipment exports to Scandinavia will be significantly strengthened after STARK and Øveraasen signed an agreement to represent STARK attachments in Sweden and Norway.

Management pleased The management of both companies expresses great satisfaction with the new agreement.

– “We are incredibly proud to have STARK on board. Their products perfectly complement our portfolio and will give our customers an even broader and stronger offering. This is a strategically important agreement for our continued growth in the Nordic region,” says Øveraasen’s Managing Director, Thor Arve Øveraasen.

It is important for customers to receive expert, close and fast service, preferably in their own mother tongue. We are convinced that cooperation between the companies will be seen as very positive by customers, says Ola Ulmala, CEO at Lametal Oy.
