Infranord Components

Infranord is a state-owned limited company that, among other things, maintains Sweden's railways. Infranord Components is Infranord's own production unit, located in Nässjö. Here, they build signal technology equipment and manufacture prefabricated railway products on behalf of their customers. Infranord Components has been a customer of NPP for just over five years. Together, we have developed a variety of special solutions, including transformer cabinets and cabinets for monitoring passing wagons.

Most often, Infranord Components only provides a list of requirements with dimensions and desired functions or solutions that the product needs to have. After our designers have reviewed the requirements and guidelines, the company receives a proposal for what the final product could look like. “Our collaboration with NPP works very well here” says Bengt-Olof Sandin, Purchasing Manager at Infranord Components, and continues: “They often only provide dimensions and simple functions/requirements to start with, and then we receive a finished proposal. We have a good dialogue, and NPP is always very responsive and good at understanding our needs.”

Bengt-Olof says that the collaboration and dialogue with NPP has always worked well and that they receive a lot of help in the development of their products. “NPP is flexible and responsive, and can develop solutions according to our wishes; additionally, they offer good pricing. Furthermore, the geographical proximity should not be underestimated; most things can be handled remotely, but sometimes it's convenient to have each other close by.”

What is important to consider when developing a cabinet for your operations?
“Outdoor cabinets must be stainless or painted. Many of our customers have high demands on how the cabinets should look and what functions they should have, so it's important for us that they maintain high quality, and the cabinets from NPP do just that.”
