The company group that consists of Välinge Innovation and Bjelin has appointed Fredrik Alfredsson as Global Head of Sales, responsible for the sale of all flooring products under the Bjelin brand.

Bjelin’s hardened wood range won the Best of NeoCon 2023 Award in the Hard-Surface Flooring: Natural Materials category! The Scandinavian-designed floors were recognised for their “excellence and innovation” at NeoCon’s event in Chicago.

Bjelin has been nominated Company of the Year in Helsingborg, Sweden - where the Bjelin HQ is based - motivated by the company's focus on innovation, modern leadership and sustainability.

Bjelin has launched a new range of hardened wood floors – with updated and improved colours, formats and technologies. The company has entered an exciting phase of growth and has expanded into new markets with more products to be launched throughout the year.

Pervanovo Invest AB, the parent company of Bjelin industries in Croatia and Välinge Group in Sweden, has through its subsidiary Välinge Croatia signed an agreement to acquire 85% of the shares in the Croatian furniture company Spin Valis. The intention is to acquire 100% of the shares. The acquisition means that large-scale production and marketing of furniture with Välinge’s click technology can be achieved faster than originally planned and the availability of oak material will increase. The acquisition requires approval from the antitrust authorities. Spin Valis will be renamed Bjelin Spinvalis.

Bjelins vision is to become the world's largest and most sustainable wooden flooring company. The flooring production is partly powered by solar panels placed on the roofs of the facilities. The company from the south of Sweden, now ready for the next step, is investing heavily in solar power in its transition towards energy self-sufficiency.

Bjelin will counter the general scarcity of building materials that affects the construction and flooring industry by increasing the investments in its production capabilities. Russia’s war on Ukraine will undoubtedly create negative consequences for the industry by creating delays of construction projects.

Bjelin condemns the unprovoked Russian aggressions, a mockery of international law and a direct attack on democratic values.
