Steelwrist has been recognized as one of Sweden's Best Managed Companies for the seventh year in a row and has achieved platinum status

Steelwrist has been recognized as one of Sweden's 2026 Best Managed Companies, an award sponsored by Deloitte in partnership with Swedbank. This is the seventh year in a row Steelwrist has received this recognition, which means the company has now reached the Platinum level of the program. The award ceremony took place on May 26 in Stockholm, where the winners were presented.

Sweden's Best Managed Companies is an annual quality award for well-managed, privately held Swedish companies. The Swedish program was launched in 2018, the first awards were presented in 2019, and it is part of Deloitte's global Best Managed Companies program, originally established in Canada in 1993. The recognition in Sweden is sponsored by Deloitte in partnership with Swedbank.

Companies are judged based on four key areas: strategy, capacity and innovation, corporate culture and commitment, and governance and financial performance. Companies receiving this recognition for several consecutive years can advance to the Gold and Platinum levels, with the Platinum level being awarded after seven consecutive years.

“We are proud to present this award to these 16 companies, all of which demonstrate strong leadership, a clear strategic agenda and well-functioning processes.” Unlisted, privately held companies account for a large part of our workforce, our revenues and a thriving business community, and are an important building block of the Swedish economy. “We are therefore particularly pleased to present the award for best-managed companies to these entrepreneurs,” said Lina Thörn, partner at Deloitte and responsible for Best Managed Companies in Sweden.

Lina Thörn continued: “We would like to warmly congratulate our gold and platinum members who have received the award for at least four and seven consecutive years, respectively.” It is truly inspiring to see that so many of these companies continue to invest and measure themselves against their set goals year after year.”

Steelwrist celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2025 and has since continued to grow globally, with a presence in now 19 countries. With a product portfolio focused on tiltrotators, automatic quick couplers and attachments that improve excavator efficiency, the company continues to experience strong growth.

In 2026, Steelwrist is taking several important steps, including continuing the launch of the third-generation XTR tiltrotors, introducing the new QuantumConnect operating system platform and expanding operations in different parts of the world.

“Being named one of Sweden's Best Managed Companies for the seventh consecutive year, achieving platinum status, is something we are very proud of.” I firmly believe that this milestone reflects our unique culture, the dedication and hard work of our global team, and our ongoing commitment to continuous improvement throughout the company. “It confirms that we have laid a strong foundation for further growth and development,” said Stefan Stockhaus, CEO of Steelwrist.
