Entrepreneur Jan Sundell

Everything starts in 1974 from the drive to develop solutions for an industry with many challenges but also opportunities. Entrepreneur Jan Sundell is passionate from the start for what will become Westmatic's signature; sustainable integrity and efficiency. The strength of being able to add an environmentally friendly dimension to fantastic washing results, reliability and other purely functional properties.

The following year, 1975, the first water recycling EMÅ-300 is manufactured and another year later, in 1976, a waste bin washer is built in collaboration with Electrolux in Copenhagen.
