Sura Magnets, the leading Scandinavian manufacturer of polymer-bonded permanent magnets, is to strengthen its development resources and customer service. This is to be achieved by acquiring the competitor company Euromag Sweden, which has a very similar product line. Through this acquisition, Sura Magnets, which is well established within the automotive industry and medical sector in Germany, France and Switzerland, will gain increased market coverage in the U.K. and other locations.

Injection moulded polymer magnets from Sura Magnets AB of Sweden, instead of conventional metal magnets. This is the material that turned out to be the optimal solution in the manufacture of Alfa Laval Agri's revolutionary design for a new type of electronically-controlled pulsator to control the pulsed vacuum in milking machines. The final design is also an interesting example of an unusual manufacturing approach taken by a particular group of companies called PB Option. From an idea to a completed unit produced by multi-component moulding in one single process.
