Vi är stolta över att kunna berätta att CTEK har nominerats till Stora Leverantörspriset, ett av de mest respekterade priserna inom den skandinaviska fordonsindustrin.

Nomineringen till Stora Leverantörspriset speglar företagets anmärkningsvärda tillväxt, dess fokus på hållbarhet och dess roll som ett föredöme för branschen i stort.

Prisjuryn kommenterade: ”Resan har gått från ett garageprojekt med motorcyklar och entusiastbilar till att bli en börsnoterad, dynamisk global aktör, idag både en OEM-leverantör och en teknikledare inom batteriladdare.

Med en stark position på konsumentmarknaden samt OEM- och proffssegmenten sticker affärsmodellen ut som ett vinnande koncept i en era som definieras av hållbarhet.

Företaget kombinerar innovativ design med starkt entreprenörskap och ett tydligt miljöfokus, samtidigt som dess engagemang för internationalisering och kontinuerlig forskning och utveckling förstärker dess roll som en förebild i branschen.”

Idag verkar CTEK på mer än 70 marknader, och vi fortsätter att investera i ny teknik och produktutveckling för att möta kraven från en snabbt föränderlig bransch.

Ett erkännande av innovation och ansvar

Att nomineras till Stora Leverantörspriset är också ett erkännande av CTEK:s förmåga att anpassa sig till en tid av stora förändringar i fordonsvärlden. Elektrifiering, digitalisering och hållbarhet omformar branschen, och leverantörer är under ett ökande tryck att leverera tillförlitliga, framåtblickande lösningar.

För CTEK är nomineringen inte bara en hyllning till det som redan har uppnåtts utan också ett viktigt tecken på att företagets strategi för framtiden är den rätta. Övergången från förbränningsmotorer till elektriska drivlinor är den största förändringen som fordonsindustrin någonsin har stått inför.

”Att nomineras till Stora Leverantörspriset är inte bara en stor ära, utan också ett bevis på att CTEK ligger i framkant av fordonsindustrins omvandling. Vi är oerhört stolta över att vårt engagemang för hållbar innovation, avancerad teknik och nära samarbeten med våra kunder uppmärksammas på detta sätt. Detta erkännande stärker vår beslutsamhet att fortsätta driva utvecklingen och att fortsätta forma framtiden för mobilitet tillsammans med branschen.”

Ulrika Romell, Head of Pre-Sales, Professional, CTEK:

"Leverantörer som kan leverera praktiska lösningar med starka miljömässiga meriter kommer att spela en avgörande roll. CTEK:s engagemang för hållbar innovation, avancerad laddningsteknik och användarcentrerad design har skapat en stark plattform för framtiden."

"Genom att arbeta nära tillverkare såväl som slutkunder formar vi lösningar som möter dagens behov samtidigt som vi förbereder oss för morgondagens krav."

Pristagaren kommer att utses av priskommittén, bestående av FKG:s ordförande Martin Lidén, styrelseledamot Cecilia Schülén och VD Peter Bryntesson, tillsammans med de två senaste vinnarna, Jonas Adolfsson från SSAB och Joakim Fritz från National Sweden. Priset delas ut den 9 oktober.

Portable Battery Boosters: An Essential Tool for Today’s Drivers

Modern compact jump starters such as CTEK’s new RB3000 and RB4000, now available in the USA and Canada, provide confidence and a rapid restart to get you where you need to be when a dead battery could leave you stranded. For many drivers, a dead battery is still one of the most frustrating ways for a journey to grind to a halt – or not even begin. It can happen at home on a cold morning, in a supermarket car park, at a campsite, outside work or miles from immediate help. Traditionally, the answer was to keep a set of jumper cables in the trunk and hope that another vehicle – and a willing helper – was nearby. Today, there is a smarter, safer and more independent option: the portable battery booster. A portable battery booster is a compact jump starter designed to provide instant starting power to a vehicle with a discharged 12V battery. Instead of relying on another car, long cables and roadside guesswork, drivers can connect the booster directly to the battery, start the vehicle and get moving again in minutes. For modern motorists – whether they drive daily, travel for leisure, manage a work vehicle or simply want reassurance – this makes a booster one of the most practical emergency tools to keep on board. Why portable battery boosters matter Vehicles are more dependent on electrical systems than ever before. Infotainment, lighting, alarms, stop-start technology, dash cams, charging ports and comfort features all place demands on the battery. Add in short journeys, colder weather, periods of inactivity or an ageing battery, and even a well-maintained vehicle can fail to start – often at the worst possible time. Portable boosters avoid that risk. They are small enough to store in the trunk, glovebox, campervan locker or workshop kit, yet powerful enough to deliver the high burst of current needed to start a vehicle. Many also double as emergency power banks and include built-in lighting, making them useful well beyond the moment a battery fails. Key benefits for drivers Independence: A booster lets drivers restart a vehicle without waiting for another car, a neighbour, a colleague or a recovery service. Speed: In many situations, the process takes only a few minutes, helping drivers avoid delays and disruption. Safety: Quality boosters use protection features such as spark-proof and reverse polarity protection, reducing the risk of mistakes during stressful roadside moments. Portability: Modern units are compact, lightweight and easy to store, so they can travel with the vehicle instead of sitting in a garage. Multi-purpose value: USB charging ports and LED lights turn many boosters into practical emergency power sources for phones, tablets, lighting and other essentials. When to boost Portable battery boosters are particularly useful for daily drivers who make frequent short trips, as batteries may not always have enough time to recharge fully. They are equally valuable for families heading away on holiday, tradespeople who rely on their vans, drivers of older vehicles, motorhome and campervan owners, boating enthusiasts, fleet operators and anyone who parks in areas where another vehicle may not be available for a jump start. They also come into their own in seasonal conditions. Cold weather can reduce battery performance, while long periods of inactivity can leave vehicles struggling to start. A booster provides a simple safeguard before an early commute, a weekend trip, a school run or an important appointment turns into an avoidable problem. Why boosters are smarter than jumper cables Jumper cables depend on circumstances drivers cannot always control. You need access to another vehicle, enough room to position both vehicles safely, someone willing to help and the confidence to connect the cables correctly. That is not always realistic on a busy roadside, in a dark car park, on a remote site or when parked nose-in against a wall. A portable booster removes much of that uncertainty. It is self-contained, immediately available and designed specifically for the job. With modern safety protections, clear indicators and compact storage, it gives drivers a more controlled and user-friendly way to deal with a dead battery. Instead of depending on luck, they can carry their own solution. CTEK RB3000 and RB4000: premium reassurance The new CTEK RB3000 and RB4000 battery boosters are designed in Sweden, and now available in the US and Canada, for drivers who want more than a basic emergency accessory. They position portable boosting as part of a complete approach to vehicle readiness: dependable starting power, practical safety features, useful everyday charging capability and the peace of mind associated with a specialist battery-care brand. The RB3000 powers up to 30 starts on a single charge whilst the RB4000 provides up to 45 starts. Once charged up, that power is long-lasting: both CTEK boosters hold power for up to six months, ensuring readiness whenever it’s needed. Both models reflect what modern drivers increasingly expect from emergency equipment: compact design, quick setup, clear usability, robust safety thinking and additional functionality that makes the unit useful even when the car starts first time. In short, they are not just jump starters; they are confidence tools. Peace of mind in the trunk No driver plans for a dead battery, but every driver can prepare for one. A portable battery booster turns an inconvenient breakdown into a manageable pause, helping people get back on the road quickly and safely. For motorists who value reliability, independence and practical preparedness, the CTEK RB3000 and RB4000 offer premium solutions that make sense before the problem happens – not after.
