Cascade Corporation, the global provider in lift truck attachments, forks and accessories, will acquire Scandinavian fork manufacturer Scana Steel Booforge AB from Incus Investors ASA as a wholly-owned subsidiary.
Scana Steel Booforge AB is a world-leading manufacturer of customized and large lift truck forks, including models with capacities up to 150 tons, as well as free-form forging for demanding applications that require extreme strength. The company has been in operation for over 350 years, which has allowed them to cultivate unmatched materials expertise and standards of quality.
“We are very pleased to join Cascade as the next step in our company’s history,” says Anders Johansson, Managing Director of Scana Steel Booforge AB. “Together, we will be able to realize greater reach while continuing to provide the quality and customization our customers expect.”
Located in Karlskoga, Sweden, Scana Steel Booforge AB currently serves a variety of European markets as well as international customers. With the global reach of Cascade Corporation’s distribution network, these fork solutions will be able to reach more customers than ever before.
“Booforge is an exceptional company for many reasons,” says Davide Roncari, Cascade Corporation President and CEO. “Their commitment to quality truly makes them stand out and is the reason we know they will be a great addition to the Cascade family.”
Scana Steel Booforge AB will continue normal operations under Cascade Corporation ownership.
