Tykoflex

Technology for the robust networks of the future

Tykoflex set a new world record for fibre optic submarine cable splicing with 1,728 fibres. A technical feat, which shows the company is an innovative force to be reckoned with. Now the development journey in communications infrastructure is continuing – both at sea and on land.

Tykoflex is a market leader in connectors for critical infrastructure, with cutting-edge expertise in fibre optic splicing products. The company supplies some of the world’s largest cable manufacturers, network owners and network operators, which develop and ensure interference-free transmission of electrical power and data communications. Examples of product applications from Tykoflex are splicing solutions for optical ground wire (OPGW) communication in electrical grids, control of wind farms and marine fibre optic transmission cables.

Societal development creates new opportunities
At a time when resilience, local value chains and hybrid defences are becoming increasingly important, the demand is growing for solutions to build secure, robust and future-proof networks. This creates new opportunities for Tykoflex, whose products are known for their durability, reliability and high technical performance. Today, the company has a strong position inthe Nordic region and is well positioned to continue its expansion.

Tykoflex in Lagercrantz Group
Tykoflex is part of Lagercrantz Group since 2022. After the acquisition, net revenue has increased by 20% and profit by 25%, and several key competencies have been added to both management and specialist functions. The Örje family (the entrepreneurs and sellers of the company) and current MD, Richard Petersson, have this to say about the development together with Lagercrantz:

“With Lagercrantz, Tykoflex has gained access to both financial resources and critical competencies in procurement, packaging and international expansion.This contributes to increased confidence in the market and creates favourable conditions for continued expansion and value creation in an already strong company.”
