Our History

The Abileer story is one of growth, dedication, and strong partnerships – a history that continues to shape our future.

Our History

Three strong companies – one shared future.

Abileer is the result of three well-established companies, each carrying decades of expertise: Sternhammar, HBA Fordonsteknik, and CDS Produkter. Each with its own story, know-how, and proud traditions – now united under one name, with eyes firmly set on the future. 

Sternhammar, founded in 1938, built a strong reputation in accessories and equipment for vehicles, industry, and workshops. With a broad product range, long-standing customer relationships, and a dedication to quality, the company became a trusted partner for both resellers and professional users. 

HBA Fordonsteknik, founded in 1984, specialized in high-performance vehicle lighting and safety products for commercial and special-purpose vehicles. With deep technical expertise and a strong network, HBA set the standard for functionality, durability, and safety on the road. 

CDS Produkter, established in the 1980s, became a key player in vehicle lighting, with particular strength in customized solutions and fast deliveries. 
In 2024, these three companies merged to form Abileer – a stronger player with a broader knowledge base and a shared ambition: to deliver solutions that make a difference for people, vehicles, and work environments. 

The Story Lives On.

We carry forward the best of each company – their expertise, relationships, and values – and combine them with a modern, forward-looking strategy. Abileer is more than a new name; it is the culmination of a journey shaped by entrepreneurial spirit, reliability, and the drive to innovate. 
For us, history is not just something in the past – it is the foundation on which we build the future.
