Overview
Kompendiet AB is a Swedish digital printing company based in central Gothenburg. It operates as the digital printing arm of the small printing group Svenskt Tryck, whose two production units — the offset printer Ale Tryckteam in Bohus and the digital printer Kompendiet in Gothenburg — are presented together as "the small group with the big possibilities." Kompendiet's stated specialty is digital printing combined with a complete bookbinding operation, offering perfect binding (limbindning), saddle stitching (klammerhäftning) and Wire-O binding. The group also provides graphic design services, with a graphic designer available to help customers shape the visual experience of their brand, from typography to finished printed matter. The group's customer promise, expressed on its website, is that no job is too small, too large or too odd: it produces annual reports and sustainability reports, brochures and catalogues, variable-data print, and large-format and specialty products, using digital or offset techniques as appropriate. The company describes itself as a personal printing house "since 1970" and emphasizes continuous improvement, quality work and certifications at Ale Tryckteam. Its tone is deliberately informal and anti-corporate — "we won't fluff up our messages, we'll just say it like it is" — and it stresses that all are welcome and that every enquiry, large or small, is greeted with the same enthusiasm. Kompendiet is not a listed company and does not publish a stock ticker; it is a private Swedish limited company (AB) within the Svenskt Tryck group. Its public profile is modest, consisting mainly of the group website and a Wikidata entry. The brand's relevance in a commercial knowledge base lies in its role as a regional Scandinavian printing and bookbinding service provider serving businesses that need annual reports, catalogues, brochures and variable-data print.
History
Kompendiet AB is a digital printing house located in central Gothenburg, Sweden. It forms part of the printing group Svenskt Tryck, which presents itself as "the small group with the big possibilities" and which also includes the offset printer Ale Tryckteam in Bohus. The group's website states that it has been a personal printing house "since 1970," a date that anchors the group's printing tradition, though the specific founding date of Kompendiet AB itself is not given in the available sources. The group describes its two production units as different but alike: Ale Tryckteam is an offset printer with printing, bookbinding and large-format/roll-up production, while Kompendiet is a digital printer with a complete bookbinding operation delivering perfect binding, saddle stitching and Wire-O binding. Alongside the two presses, the group offers graphic design, with a graphic designer helping customers create the right experience of their brand through typography and other design choices. The company's public narrative emphasizes informality, honesty and customer care. Founders Palle and Jimmy are quoted as saying, "Our dream was to create the small group with the big possibilities. And here we are now." The website stresses that all are welcome, that the team cares "for real," and that no order is too small, too large or too odd. It also highlights continuous improvement and quality work, including certifications at Ale Tryckteam. Kompendiet's service range covers annual reports and sustainability reports, brochures and catalogues, variable-data print, and large-format and specialty products, produced digitally or by offset as the job requires. The company remains a private Swedish limited company within the Svenskt Tryck group and maintains a modest public footprint, with its group website and a Wikidata entry as its main public records.
