The Story Behind Lalmek
Lalmek was founded in 1976 by Lars-Arne Larsson in Ölmstad, just outside Gränna. It all started with a problem he faced at home in his barn—a hydraulically powered system for removing manure from animal stalls that Lars-Arne designed himself when there were no viable alternatives on the market.
The system attracted attention in the industry, and a long-term partnership with DeLaval was soon established, with DeLaval taking on sales and service through its global network. The partnership resulted in a long series of innovative solutions for on-farm equipment—including ergonomic, height-adjustable floors for milking pits (ComFloor) and an advanced gate system for livestock barns (CowMover).
The workshop quickly grew into a modern industry. A range of unique hydraulic components was developed—including the pressure-reversing directional control valve and complete hydraulic systems. Today, the company’s customers are found not only in agriculture but also in solid fuel, material handling, workshop equipment, environmental technology, and infrastructure.
In May 2018, the company changed hands when Anders Jarl, Nahrin Yacoub, and Henric Kollin acquired all of the shares. All three had been with the company for at least ten years at that point, with the goal of continuing to lead Lalmek forward in the same spirit.
