Vägsäk

What Vägsäk does

Vägsäk AB is a privately held Swedish infrastructure services company incorporated in 2007 and headquartered in Gammelstad, Luleå, with a regional office established in Gävle in April 2022. The company self-describes as Sweden's largest guardrail installer ("Sveriges största räckesmontör") and operates nationwide, holding ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications. Its work is organized into three lines: Väg- och Broräcken (new installation, repair, and maintenance of road railings, bridge railings, median barriers, pedestrian and cycle railings, parking railings, and specialized suicide prevention and noise barriers); Entreprenad (civil engineering and construction contracting including demolition, foundation work, parking and park construction); and Yttre Fastighetsskötsel (exterior property maintenance such as grass cutting, snow removal, winter road maintenance, tree care, and cleaning).

Customers span Swedish government infrastructure agencies and municipalities, construction and civil engineering firms, housing cooperatives and property management companies, and private individuals. Vägsäk operates a direct-to-customer B2B and B2C model with no franchise, reseller, or software platform layer; field service delivery is performed by its own trained workforce coordinated through site managers, project managers, and a centralized HSE/KMA administrative function. Pricing is quote-based per project and not publicly disclosed. Direct contact (phone, email, website form) and project-based engagement drive revenue rather than paid digital marketing, and the company's primary digital surface is its vagsak.se website.

The business is owner-operated, with Almir Ulakovic serving as CEO and Project Manager for Construction, supported by a small named leadership group including Björn Strömbäck (Site Manager and Cost Estimation, Construction), Lisa Strömbäck (Site Manager and Cost Estimation, Road Railings), and an HSE/KMA administrator, plus operational staff for machine rental and property maintenance. No external investors, parent company, subsidiaries, or M&A activity are disclosed.
