Hedenberg Advanced Vehicle Design

HAVD Group was founded in the fall of 1988 by Björn and Lotta Hedenberg. Ever since, the company has been kept as a family business. The focus to help the automotive industry with different type of development projects. Hence the name of the company;

Hedenberg Advanced Vehicle Design – HAVD

Over the years the projects has increased and a focus on products for interior design and safety has grown. The numbers of employees slowly started to increase and in the spring of 1993 the company purchased and moved in to the real estate at Kryptongatan 7 in Mölndal, Sweden. Until this day, it still stands as the HQ.

The business is prospering. So, in the 1998 HAVD started Novus Interior in Hungary, now HAVD Group Interior. As previous saddler, the experience and competence of tailormade products in leather is of the essence of the business as is today.

In 2009 the requests are widen and to broaden the offer, Scandinavia’s largest factory for polyurethan foam is now acquired. The plant in Ed, Sweden is now part of the group under the name of HAVD Group Purtech.

Right from the start, HAVD has been known for the organic knowledge, high quality products and innovative minds. Through acquaintances, in 2017 HAVD got the opportunity to assist VA Automotive in manufacturing and assembling complete seats within the automotive industry for small buses. This lead to an acquisition in the summer of 2018 and is now a part of the group.
