About Recore
Swedish roots.
International perspective.
We bring composite materials and application knowledge together for the industries that move people.
Our heritage
Built on decades
of material development.
Our heritage begins with Artboard AB, founded in Sweden in 1984 by Lars Henning and Tore Andersson. Its development of lightweight composite panels became the foundation for applications in transport interiors.
Recore Industries AB continues that material tradition, connecting composite products with consulting, design, engineering and competence development.
Our focus is practical: understand the application, select the material, resolve the interfaces and support the next stage of development.

Working with Recore
Bring the question.
Let’s work through it.
A tight space. A weight target. An installation detail that will not quite fit.
You do not need a finished specification to start a conversation. Tell us what you are trying to achieve and where you need support. We will listen, review the options with you and agree a practical next step.
- Your application sets the direction.
- Materials and interfaces are considered together.
- Scope and responsibilities are agreed before work begins.
Start with a non-confidential brief. Sensitive details can follow under agreed confidentiality arrangements.
Start with your challenge
Let’s engineer
what comes next.
Tell us what needs to be lighter, fit better or work differently. A short introduction is enough to begin. We’ll discuss the application and agree the next step with you.
