As part of Husqvarna Group's efforts to improve cost efficiency and increase profitability, the Group?s factory in Brastad will be decommissioned. All manufacturing that takes place in the factory will be outsourced to third parties, which contributes to improved flexibility and a more asset-light business model. Production in Brastad will be phased out gradually with planned decommissioning during the first half of 2027.
The annual savings from the closure are expected to amount to approximately SEK 100 million, with full effect from 2027. Costs related to the decommissioning are expected to amount to approximately SEK 140 million, whereof SEK 20 million will be recognized as a non-recurring cost (items affecting comparability in operating profit) in the fourth quarter of 2025 and the rest in 2026. The factory in Brastad has 84 employees and manufactures components for Husqvarna Group's petrol-powered engines for handheld products.
