LinkedInAbout Coredeq
Coredeq is a contract manufacturing partner for hardware teams. Founded in Lund, Sweden, we take products from CAD to volume across rapid prototyping, PCB assembly, injection molding and tooling, and scaled production. One project owner per program. 24-hour quotes. DFM feedback from real engineers, not sales people.
Hardware founders waste months talking to fragmented suppliers: one shop for prototypes, another for tooling, a third for PCBs, a fourth for assembly. Translation overhead kills timelines. Quality drifts between handoffs. We started Coredeq because we lived this problem ourselves and saw a simpler way. One engineering partner that owns the program end-to-end and brings in the right specialists at the right time.
Today we manufacture for hardware startups, deep-tech companies, and global brands across Sweden and Europe, from one-off prototypes to multi-thousand-unit production runs. Audited supplier network in Europe and Asia. ISO 9001, ISO 14001, IATF 16949, and IPC Class II/III certified partners. Clients can take ownership of their tooling, anytime.
Coredeq is run by two partners with a combined 60+ years in manufacturing engineering and operations. Both based in Lund. Both reachable directly.

Partner
Sten partners on Coredeq programs and runs Sten Rundberg Design AB. His industrial design and product engineering background means Coredeq customers get manufacturability feedback that respects the original design intent.
LinkedInCoredeq is based in Lund, Sweden, between Malmö and the Öresund tech corridor. Most engineering, quality, and project ownership happens here. Production is split between vetted partners in Europe (for prototypes, fast turn, and EU-jurisdiction projects) and Asia (for cost-sensitive volume).
Clients choose the production region based on cost, lead time, IP sensitivity, and compliance needs. We don't push one over the other. We recommend the right answer for the program.
Quotes come from engineers, not gatekeepers. Send us your CAD or BOM and we'll come back inside 24 hours with a number and DFM feedback.
