Our History

From Pioneering Innovation to Global Growth

KT-Shelter delivers mobile sheltering solutions for helicopters, fixed-wings and large UAVs. Designed for extreme conditions, making Ground Support operations mobile. Protecting and enhancing assets where necessary for MRO support, including tactical radar protection.

  • Our Tactical Ground Support solutions (TGS) enhance our Defence and Security customers operations, wherever needed according to a dispersed doctrine.
  • KT-Shelter solutions will enhance Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO) and Life cycle Support (LCS) for your most valuable assets.
  • We enable our customers’ performance with high-quality mobile protection and service solutions in demanding conditions.

Founded in 2013, KT-Shelter has grown from a start-up into a trusted international partner. In just over a decade we have expanded our customer base across borders, strengthened our portfolio and consistently increased both revenue and profit. Our state-of-the-art hangar solutions represent technology that few – if any – can match. By continuously developing our products and services, we have proven our capability to deliver large and complex projects anywhere in the world. We remain committed to being a reliable partner to our customers and collaborators alike.

In 2026, our journey took its next step. KT-Shelter joined the W5 Solutions Group, a Swedish defence technology company with roots dating back to 1940. W5 is listed on Nasdaq First North Growth Market Stockholm, giving the group the financial transparency and stability that our defence and government customers expect from a long-term partner. The two companies complement each other closely: W5’s strengths in integration, training and power solutions extend naturally alongside KT-Shelter’s expertise in rapidly deployable shelter systems, opening new possibilities for joint innovation and more efficient production.

For our customers, little has changed. The same team, the same contact persons and the same commitment to quality remain in place. What has changed is our reach: as part of a larger international group, we now have new resources and a broader platform to keep developing our solutions and serving customers worldwide.

Our journey has not only been a success story. We have faced challenges and uncertainty, but we have always held on to what makes KT-Shelter special: our absolute commitment to quality, innovation and understanding our clients’ requirements, not forgetting communality and a good atmosphere.

Our Values

Attitude

We build with boldness. KT-Shelter was born from a genuine need, not a business plan – and that spirit lives on. Whether it’s testing a new design under a fighter jet, driving through border closures to deliver parts, or staying up all night to meet a deadline, we bring hands-on energy and fearless commitment to everything we do. When others pause, we press forward. We call it attitude – the KT-Shelter way.

Openness

From day one, KT-Shelter has thrived on collaboration. We were built through partnerships, open dialogue and shared challenges – with customers, suppliers, teammates and friends. Openness means being transparent in our work, inclusive in our culture, and always ready to listen, adapt and improve. In a world full of complexity, we work actively to bring clarity – in communication, in relationships, and in the way we operate.

Innovation

Innovation isn’t a slogan – it’s how we survive and lead. Our shelters are engineered to endure the toughest conditions, without anchoring or heavy machinery. Innovation at KT-Shelter goes beyond the product. It’s visible in our agile operations, cross-sector partnerships, and mindset: solve, not settle. We’re not afraid to reinvent the way things are done – and we’re just getting started.


Certified Excellence in Quality & Environment

KT-Shelter operates under internationally recognized management systems — including ISO 9001 for quality and ISO 14001 for environmental responsibility. We build our processes on rigorous standards that promote continual improvement, compliance, and sustainable performance in everything we deliver.
