Westermo business entity

Westermo offers reliable solutions for industrial data communication. Simply, these solutions enable data to be transferred in both fixed and wireless networks. Reliable data communication is a prerequisite for digitalization, where different systems are connected to control and monitor various applications and equipment.

Market and Offering

The need for better and more reliable data communication is growing as digitalization progresses and more devices and functions are connected. At the same time, many industrial operating environments are tough, and the consequences of network failures can be catastrophic when it comes to essential societal infrastructure such as railways and power grids. Westermo's strength lies in creating products and solutions for robust and secure data communication in demanding environments where nothing can go wrong.

The solutions are aimed at the infrastructure market in the form of transportation, energy production and distribution, and water supply.

The global market for industrial routers and switches, which is the largest market for Westermo, is estimated to be worth over 25 billion SEK and is expected to grow at a rate of approximately 10 percent per year from 2022 to 2027.
