As a new member of DI Danish Defence and Security Industries, Ib Andresen Industri is strengthening its strategic commitment to this sector.
For us, this is not merely a membership – it is a natural extension of our ambition to be an active and long-term industrial partner within the European defence and security landscape.
We see ourselves as part of Europe’s industrial backbone – a scalable and risk-reducing supply chain partner contributing to strengthening our customers’ competitiveness.
A Strong European Production Platform
With production and operational presence in Denmark, Germany and Sweden – combined with a broad international footprint – we offer a robust and scalable supplier platform in Europe.
This means:
-
Reduced supply chain risk
-
Production within the EU
-
Flexibility in sourcing and capacity ramp-up
-
Ability to support national and international industrial cooperation programs
We can also contribute to the fulfilment of foreign suppliers’ industrial cooperation obligations (offset) through genuine industrial value creation and local anchoring.
Our focus is not capacity alone – but translating our industrial setup into tangible value creation and enhanced competitiveness for each customer.
The Entire Value Chain – One Responsible Partner
We operate in an integrated setup from steel mill to finished component:
-
Strategic sourcing and raw material management
-
Laser cutting, punching, press braking and roll forming
-
Welding and secondary processing
-
Documentation, traceability and quality assurance
-
Warehousing, logistics and project management
All combined within one coherent value chain. For our customers, this means:
-
One contractual partner
-
One technical sparring partner
-
One accountable supplier
-
A more efficient and competitive value chain
We work with both small series and large, complex structures – from minor components to heavy-duty structural steel parts. No enquiry is too small if it is important to the customer.
Quality, Documentation and Scalability
The defence and security industry sets specific requirements for:
-
Documentation and traceability
-
Process control and quality management
-
Delivery reliability
-
Long-term capacity
These are requirements we are accustomed to meeting within other regulated and technically demanding industries – and areas in which we continue to invest strategically.
For us, scalability means both the ability to support large-scale programs and to handle smaller, specialized needs with the same level of professionalism.
More Than Components
We do not see ourselves as a transactional subcontractor, but as an industrial partner.
Through early involvement, design for manufacturing and value chain optimization, we help our customers to:
-
Reduce complexity
-
Optimize weight and structural performance
-
Improve total cost of ownership
-
Secure stable ramp-up
-
Strengthen their position in a competitive market
A strong European defence industry requires specialized, capacity-strong and collaborative industrial partners.
We look forward to strengthening that engagement through DI Danish Defence and Security Industries.
