For a competitive and sustainable industry

LEH is the trade association for manufacturers and importers of electric hand tools, accessories and attachments.

Our task is, among other things, to monitor developments in the industry, establish collaborations and provide information to our members, parliament, ministries, other authorities and organizations.

The electric circuit closes the loop

When producer responsibility was introduced in 2001, electronics manufacturers, through their industry associations, created a joint service to make the recycling process smoother.

LEH was one of the driving parties in the work of starting up El-Kretsen and all member companies are connected.
