Svecia (branded SVECIA) is a Swedish Screen printing brand. It originated over 60 years ago, when a Swedish screen printer asked Mr. Åke Svantesson of "Svantesson & Co" to repair a Scottish 'McCormick' screen printing machine he had bought before World War Two. Mr. Svantesson, an engineer who specialized in making precision components for the aircraft and reactor industries, did such a good job that he was asked to design and construct a new mechanized screen printer.

  • Svecia (branded SVECIA) is a Swedish Screen printing brand. It originated over 60 years ago, when a Swedish screen printer asked Mr. Åke Svantesson of "Svantesson & Co" to repair a Scottish 'McCormick' screen printing machine he had bought before World War Two. Mr. Svantesson, an engineer who specialized in making precision components for the aircraft and reactor industries, did such a good job that he was asked to design and construct a new mechanized screen printer. Svantesson produced an innovative machine with a moving table – the principle behind the now well-known and patented Sveciamatic. It was an immediate success. Large-scale production began in order to meet the growing demand, and Svecia Silkscreen Maskiner AB was later founded. Today, over 5,000 Sveciamatic machines are still in use, and what became Svecia AB has installed over 16,000 screen printers worldwide. (en)
