Welcome to Swedens youngest city
Askås' origins and founding are located in Säffle 25 years back in time. Ever since the start, Askås' Värmland identity has been a fundamental part of the company. The head office is located in central Säffle. Regardless of where our employees live in the urban area, they have cycling distance to work. Living more rural in the municipality is also no problem. By car, there is never more than a 30-minute journey completely without traffic jams.
Four highlights

Askås Head office – history and future
Askås Head office is a place where 100-year history meets modern technology. In 1918, the building was taken into use as the head office of the Billeruds AB paper company. Today, Askås manages the historical heritage. Instead of paper, market-leading solutions for e-commerce are now "manufactured".
