How Elfa Invented a Bestseller
The story of Elfa began with the collaboration between young designer Nils "Nisse" Strinning and engineer Arne Lydmar. While studying at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Strinning devised a method for durable powder coating for steel, and together with Lydmar, they created a prototype for a wire dish rack.
Elfa was founded in 1948 in Sweden by Arne Lydmar and his partners. They initially started with the production of wire dish racks, which quickly gained popularity due to their functional design and quality. The success of this product marked the beginning of a long journey for the company in the field of storage and organization. Over the next seven decades, Elfa became a market leader in the Nordic countries in smart storage solutions.
