Habia Cable was founded in 1941 in Stockholm, Sweden by Carl “Charlie” Herbert Jacobson to make Bakelite components. Between 1945 and 1955, it was one of the first in Europe to manufacture components in PTFE. In 1969, Habia opened its first international sales office in Breda, Holland, followed by sales and production companies in Europe, Asia, and the US. In 1977, Habia was sold to Beijer Sponsor, which continued the international expansion until the mid-1980s. New factories were set up, each with a different product focus. Sales offices were also established in France, Germany, UK, Spain, Belgium and the US.
