In the little community in Ohs a couple of km from Horda a industial community with a distinguished heritage can be found. During 16 th to the 17 th century there was an iron-ore works which later turned into a paper mill. When this had to be closed down in seventies, HordaGruppen took over. The old papermill turned into a modern rubber industry.
- We took over in 1978. The first products to be produced where hoses for the white goods industry, says Lars Lejon, managing director.

25 years later the White goods industry is still an important customer for the unreinforced rubber hoses which are produced in the factory. The factory has been modernized and is today approved according to QS 9000, ISO 9001 och ISO 14000. It is a fine plant with loyal personnel, whom we are very proud off, says Lars Lejon.

We will of course pay attention to the anniversary. We are planning a celebration in May when the founders and pensioned employees also will be invited to the celebration.

HordaGruppen is today the only industry in the village, and this is of course important for the community. There is no risk that the factory will meet the same destiny as its forerunners.
-No we have no such intentions, we are planning on staying in Ohs.
