Sweden’s Axjo Group is expanding its cable reel production business by opening a new manufacturing facility in Haltom City, Texas. The move marks an important step in the company’s long‑term growth strategy and strengthens its North American market presence.
The new plant spans 160,586 square feet and sits just outside Fort Worth. Axjo Group plans to begin operations in January, starting with 30 employees. The facility will produce spools and large cable reels, starting at 30 inches and above, to serve a variety of customers across the U.S. and Canada.
Furthermore, the Texas site will complement Axjo’s existing North Carolina facility, offering the full U.S. product portfolio. Together, these operations will increase capacity, improve delivery speed, and enhance customer service across the continent. As a result, Axjo strengthens its position within the global supply chain while boosting regional efficiency.
“This is a natural next step for Axjo Group,” said Owner Jacob Nilsson. “We’re seeing strong U.S. demand for sustainable reels, so it makes sense to produce locally. Therefore, being close to our customers allows faster response times and reduced environmental impact.”
Tim Schultz, CEO of Axjo America, described the expansion as a major milestone. “Our new Texas plant brings us closer to customers in the Southwest and supports our push for sustainability,” he said. “In addition, the facility enables us to offer eco‑friendly, high‑performance cable reels produced right here in the United States.”
Moreover, by localizing production, Axjo Group expects to reduce lead times and improve flexibility for domestic customers. The investment reinforces Axjo’s commitment to sustainability, innovation, and customer satisfaction while opening new opportunities for growth across the North American market.
