Byggresan Starts
On a crisp November day in 1861, a determined 21-year-old named Jean-Abraham G?the opened the doors to his first property on Slaggatan in the heart of Falun. Little did he know, this modest start would grow into one of the Nordic region’s leading companies in locks, fittings, security solutions, and cutting tools.
Fast forward to 1974. After 113 years of growth and evolution, the ?stlund family took the reins of G?thes, ushering in a new era. That same year, construction began on the property at Roxn?sv?gen, which would become the cornerstone of our operations—a headquarters and warehouse built to support a thriving business.
By 1984, just ten years later, the building had expanded to a remarkable 5,000 square meters. For decades, this space has been the hub of innovation, collaboration, and progress for G?thes and its three subsidiaries: G?thes Industribeslag AB, G?thes S?kerhet AB, and G?thes Teknik AB.
Now, in 2024, exactly 50 years after that first construction milestone, we are embarking on our most ambitious project yet—a transformation that will redefine our future. This journey includes an additional 800 sqm of warehouse space and 200 sqm of new office and communal areas. It’s not just about bricks and mortar; it’s about preparing for the challenges of tomorrow, creating a workplace that inspires, and continuing to serve our partners with expertise and excellence for years to come.
This isn’t just a building journey. It’s a story of resilience, growth, and innovation—a story we are thrilled to share with you every step of the way. As construction unfolds through 2025, we’ll keep you updated, bringing you behind the scenes and celebrating milestones together.
And when the dust settles, we’ll stand proudly in a space that reflects 163 years of history, while being ready for the future. We couldn’t have done this without you—our employees, partners, and community.
So, buckle up. The Building Journey is officially underway. Together, let’s make history again.
