History
The Swedish manufacturing industry has a long history and the story of Hagaberg is part of this tradition.
Founded on the Hagaberg family grounds by Christer Granqvist in 1984, the company quickly specialized in integrated customized fork positioners, an obvious choice for forklift trucks in the Nordic market.
A market that has since long been at the forefront regarding innovative thinking and safety in material handling.

Fork positioner with C-pipe
Hagaberg has since many years a pattern protection for the unique design of fork positioners with C-pipe, our D-series. The construction has, among other things, a considerably lower weight than the corresponding attachments, which results in higher residual capacity. The construction also allows easier clamp handling without additional reinforcements.
Safe working environment
Our approach to a safe working environment encompasses both the driver and individuals around the machine and its direction of travel. The attachments have a design with perfect visibility for the driver increasing safety in the workplace. Good visibility also reduces the risk of collision damage to materials, warehouse fixtures, trucks, gates, etc.
However, in certain situations and environments, it is necessary to have a complement of smart optional products that increase the safety of the specific operation. Hagaberg offers a unique range of optional products and accessories that can be incorporated into the final solution.
Fork cameras, laser indicators on the fork blade, weight control of the load, and various types of hydraulic and manual extension forks are just some of the products we can add to an optimized and safe solution. Have a look at the SmartFork® product category for complete system solutions!
