1 DELIVERING SWEDISH QUALITY SINCE 1942

2 SWEDISH INVENTION & CHINESE EFFICIENCY 4 The only original The year was 1942 and Arne Norman had finally had enough. He was tired of impractical leather straps that were hard to tighten and with holes that were never in the right places. Arne was an inventive man who took matters into his own hands by commissioning the manufacture of a new type of fast, self-locking buckle which was independent of holes in the strap - Arno-Remmen was born, the buckle was patented and the rest is history. CUSTOMER REFERENCES ARNO STRAPS 5 6 BUCKLES & FITTINGS 8 My grandfather could probably never have imagined what a success his modest metal buckle would be, but here we are more than 70 years later with a product which is pretty much everywhere and which most people have encountered. LASHINGS 14 Today Arno-Remmen is a flourishing family business that is constantly growing. We are actively engaged in expanding our product range, and are always on the look-out for new challenges to maintain our position as market-leaders. For example, for a number of years we have been able to offer comprehensive lifting equipment alongside our ordinary range of lashings and straps. Over the years our entire range has been developed to provide multiple options in respect of material, colour and profiling in order to suit our customers. LIFTING PRODUCTS ARNO SPECIAL Having our own weaving mill in-house means that we are always able to offer cost-effective quality products and fast delivery times, even for personalised materials. When production in Kristinehamn is full up, we get help from our expert colleagues in China so that we can fulfil large orders with short lead times. THE PRODUCTION PROCESS 26 We always provide a personal service and products that are adapted to meet your specific requirements. Flexibility and quality are our watchwords! Welcome to Arno-Remmen!

3 We are proud suppliers for: For me Arno-Remmen has always represented good quality and fantastic service! Whether it entails fast deliveries or specially adapted rigging material, I have always been dealt with professionally and with a high level of service. We are extremely satisfied with Arno-Remmen as a supplier and have gone from solely buying straps to buying the bulk of our rigging material there as well. I am particularly pleased with our custom-made roundsling for the Stockholm International Fairs and Congress Centre. We had our own brand woven in and the Centre s logo printed on the label. Peter Jernberg, Head of Light & Rigging at the Stockholm International Fairs and Congress Centre Owner of QPoint AB Arno s products always maintain top quality and I experience Arno as highly solution-oriented. SWEDISH INVENTION & CHINESE EFFICIENCY Manfred Ahrens Arri The third generation of Normans are now in charge at Arno-Remmen and looking to the future to develop the business. In order to meet low price competition in the European market, an important decision was taken at the turn of the millennium to investigate the conditions for establishing a production plant in China. The location selected was Linhai, which is close to Shanghai on the Chinese east coast. The strategic location on the Pacific and proximity to one of China s largest export ports enable the products to be shipped rapidly and efficiently regardless of final destination. The fact that the production process in China is almost identical with that in Sweden delivers major synergy effects. The products are equivalent and if necessary we can provide supplementary manufacturing capacity in Sweden. We are alone in the industry in this respect, and it provides additional security for our customers. Another positive effect of the Chinese production is that we are always able to offer very short delivery times. In many cases, the products are sent to our Swedish warehouse for onward distribution, however it has recently become increasingly common for the deliveries from China to be shipped directly to end customers. This further cuts lead times and minimises the environmental impact. After what will soon be 15 years experience of manufacturing in China, we can state that our operation there has been an overwhelming success. In common with all Swedish-made lashings, the Chinese products meet the same high level of requirements for quality, function and safety. To ensure that the quality requirements are maintained, tests are performed on an ongoing basis, and each buckle is checked individually before assembly takes place. You can always rely on products from Arno, whether they are manufactured in China or in Sweden. A partner to rely on Arno Remmen is a collaborative partner that we can rely on at Bro Bärgningsbyggen AB! With its vast know-how, fast deliveries and good quality, they meet the requirements we have to enable us to supply complete, high-quality breakdown trucks throughout the world. Pontus Mörth, CEO, Bro Bärgningsbyggen AB 10 years of successful collaboration Scandic Outdoor has been working with Arno for the last 10 years, and has supplied high-quality straps to most of the retailers within the outdoor life sector in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. We have always perceived our business relations as highly professional and partner-like, and are consequently looking forward to a successful relationship in the future too.

14 OUR QUALITY PROMISE Arno-Remmen AB has held environmental and quality certification since The current certification meets the requirements for ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 14001:2004. Our quality control is maintained and managed by Det Norske Veritas. THE PRODUCTION PROCESS Our own weaving mill ensures short lead times and maximum flexibility. The basis for our production is constituted by 15 Müller weaving machines which enable us to weave all types of straps up to 75mm wide. For woven text and logos, we use the most up-to-date CAD technology for pattern design. In the factory we both dye and heat-treat the straps which are subsequently cut at a high temperature in semiautomatic high-volume machines or with fully automatic precision cutters. We also have a number of special machines for jobs such as hole-punching and winding etc. Our skilful machinists then sew various Arno buckles or other types of fittings onto the straps. They also sew special solutions according to our customers own wishes. We use all possible stitching, e.g. braid, envelope and z-stitch, etc. Finally, the finished straps are packed 25 to the bundle in so-called industrial packs or bulk, and put into boxes. For packaging for consumers or wholesalers we use a fully automatic packaging line for bags and top labels. Arno-Remmen AB has been ranked AAA, the highest credit rating, since 2008 by Dun & Bradstreet. This is an exclusive grading, which is only held by about 3% of all Swedish companies. Our products are continuously tested at SP, The Technical Research Institute of Sweden. We collaborate with FTI, the national recycling system for packaging. Since 1996 we have been quality certified according to SS-EN ISO 9001:2008, as well as environmentally certified according to SS-EN ISO 14001:2004.

15 Newspaper ad in Svenska Dagbladet, 1971 COMPANY HISTORY Construction of the new plant in Kristinehamn, 1975 Arnoremmen was founded in the early 1940s, when Arne Norman from the Swedish province of Dalarna realised how difficult it was to tighten leather straps as the holes were seldom located where they should be. He commissioned construction of a tool for a new buckle, what became known as the Swedish buckle, and started to assemble self-locking buckles on straps. The first 20 years laid the foundations for the Arno-Straps which are now an institution within lashings. Since the start, our production and range has developed and changed so that today it comprises the following products:»» Individually adapted straps»» Lashings and straps with woven text or logo»» Lashings and straps in standard design»» Woven straps»» Lifting products and items for heavy duty lashings Our plant in Kristinehamn has its own weaving mill, which guarantees short lead times and maximum flexibility. We always focus on the customer s needs, and over the years our strong ARNO brand has become synonymous with the best service and the highest quality. After more than 70 years as market leader, we would venture to suggest that most Europeans have come into contact with our products at one time or another. Thanks to our long experience and wide range, ARNO can offer the most flexible and cost-effective solutions in the market. In our long-term endeavour to develop our brand, we are constantly expanding our range with new products in order to meet our customers needs and wishes. As one of our chief guiding principles is Flexibility, we never refuse a challenge, and feel a sense of excitement when we have to put a bit more thought into resolving a problem on behalf of our customers Arno-Remmen s founder Arne Norman is born. The first Arno buckle is manufactured, and Arne Norman Bandindustri is set up in Grycksbo, Dalarna. Arno supplies 500,000 ski straps, a new sales record. Arne Norman establishes Arno LTD, Ireland. The new metal buckle is designed and patented. Arno moves to new premises in Kristinehamn, Värmland. Generational change! Arne Norman hands over the reins to his son Per-Arne who becomes the new head of Arno-Remmen. The business in Ireland is sold in order to focus on operations in Sweden. The first delivery to Volvo Cars Investments in new CAD technology for weaving. ARNO becomes ISO certified according to 9001 and as one of the first companies in the industry. The third generation of Normans continues to move forward. Arno develops its range and launches its own lifting products: hoists, sling loops, wires etc. The production area is doubled, and the first fully automatic roll cutter is purchased.
