HAKI Safety has confirmed that its President and CEO, Sverker Lindberg, will leave his position no later than April 2027.

The company said Lindberg has informed the Board of Directors of his intention to step down. The process to recruit a new President and CEO will begin immediately.

Lindberg joined the business as President and CEO in 2016, when it was known as Midway Holding.

During his time in charge, the group has moved away from its former conglomerate structure and become a more focused industrial business centred on safety products and systems for people working in challenging environments.

Thomas Widstrand, Chairman of the Board of HAKI Safety, thanked Lindberg for his leadership.

“On behalf of the entire Board, I would like to express my big thanks to Sverker,” he said.

“The strategic shift and subsequent development that the Group has undergone under his leadership are impressive. The Group is well-positioned for the future.”

Lindberg said he was leaving with confidence in the company’s current direction.

“I would like to thank the Board and owners for their trust in me during my almost ten years in the Group,” he said.

“With the certainty that the company has a determined, solid and proven strategy, I now look forward to a more open role in working life.”

Lindberg will remain in post until a successor is appointed, or until April 2027 at the latest.

Alongside his role at HAKI Safety, he is also Chairman of the Board of Kulturen in Lund and Lagafors AB.

HAKI Safety is known across the access and temporary works sector for its system scaffolding, edge protection and safety-related products.
