Dometic Group AB (publ) is a Swedish multinational corporation headquartered in Solna, Sweden, and global market leader in branded solutions for mobile living, providing products and systems for food and beverage storage, climate control, power and control, and other applications tailored to recreational vehicles (RVs), boats, outdoor lifestyles, and professional sectors. As of September 2025, the company employs approximately 7,300 people and reported net sales of SEK 19.7 billion in 2024, with trailing twelve-month sales of approximately SEK 22 billion as of Q3 2025. The company's origins trace back to 1922, when inventors Carl Munters and Baltzar von Platen developed absorption refrigeration technology, which was patented in 1923 and acquired by in 1925 for of compact refrigerators. Over the decades, expanded the business, establishing Dometic Corporation in the United States in 1968 and acquiring key entities such as Siegas Metallwarenfabrik in (1973) and Duo-Therm Corporation in the (1985). In 2001, following a divestiture by to EQT, Dometic became an independent entity focused on and mobile living products; it was listed on in 2015. Subsequent growth included major acquisitions like WAECO in 2007 and, in 2021, coolers and Front Runner Vehicle Outfitters, broadening its portfolio to serve millions of users worldwide. Today, Dometic operates through three primary sales channels—OEM (original equipment manufacturers), distribution, and service/aftermarket—delivering innovative, sustainable solutions that emphasize smart design and reliability for an outdoor-oriented lifestyle. The company maintains a robust global footprint with 21 manufacturing and assembly sites across 11 countries (as of late 2025, following restructuring) and sales in approximately 100 countries, supported by a dedicated distribution network. Its mission centers on making mobile living accessible and comfortable, from RV refrigeration and to marine power systems and portable outdoor gear.

History

Founding and early development

The origins of Dometic Group's core technologies trace back to 1922, when Swedish engineers Carl Munters and Baltzar von Platen invented the absorption refrigeration system while studying at the Royal Institute of Technology in . This innovative design utilized , , and hydrogen in a continuous cycle powered by heat—such as gas or electricity—without moving parts, making it silent and reliable for various applications. In 1923, received a for their cooling cabinet, marking a pivotal advancement in that eliminated the need for noisy compressors prevalent in early electric models. That same year, Munters and von Platen founded AB Arctic to commercialize the invention, acquiring the manufacturing rights and beginning production of the first absorption refrigerators. The technology quickly gained recognition. Electrolux, a burgeoning Swedish appliance manufacturer, acquired AB Arctic in 1925, integrating the absorption technology into its portfolio and launching of the "D-model" , the world's first commercially successful absorption unit. This acquisition enabled to expand beyond vacuum cleaners into household cooling solutions, revolutionizing by offering affordable, gas-powered fridges that operated without electricity. By the late , these refrigerators had become a staple in European homes, establishing the foundation for future mobile applications. During the 1950s, as compression refrigeration dominated stationary home use, recognized the absorption system's advantages for mobile environments and began targeting the leisure market with adaptations for recreational vehicles (RVs) and boats. The silent operation and multi-fuel capability—running on , 12V DC, or —made it ideal for off-grid settings. In , production of RV-specific absorption refrigerators commenced, marking an early expansion into portable cooling solutions that would later define Dometic's focus. This leisure-oriented development culminated in 1968, when established Dometic Corporation as a U.S. dedicated to and marketing these specialized products for the growing North American RV and marine sectors. Headquartered in —the heart of the RV industry—Dometic quickly became a key supplier, building on decades of absorption technology refinement to meet demands for compact, durable in mobile living.

Key acquisitions and expansions

In 1973, acquired Siegas Metallwarenfabrik, a German manufacturer of gas appliances, marking a significant step in the company's European expansion and integrating specialized production capabilities for mobile living products into its portfolio. This acquisition built on Dometic's early technologies by adding gas-based heating and cooking solutions, facilitating broader market penetration in . The 1985 purchase of Duo-Therm Corporation in the United States further strengthened Dometic's offerings in climate control, particularly RV systems, which had been pioneered by Duo-Therm since the . Under ownership, this integration enhanced the company's North American presence and diversified its product range beyond core into heating and cooling technologies essential for recreational . A pivotal shift occurred in 2001 when private equity firm EQT acquired Electrolux's leisure appliances division, establishing Dometic Group as an independent entity focused on mobile living solutions. This transaction separated Dometic from Electrolux's core operations, allowing it to concentrate resources on growth in the leisure sector and setting the stage for targeted expansions. In 2005, EQT sold Dometic to funds advised by BC Partners, which continued to drive its development until the public listing. In 2007, Dometic acquired the WAECO Group, a German firm specializing in portable and cooling systems, which significantly bolstered its capabilities in mobile and outdoor applications. The deal expanded Dometic's product lineup to include advanced compressor-based coolers, reinforcing its global leadership in energy-efficient cooling for , boats, and . Collectively, these acquisitions transformed Dometic from a refrigeration-centric operation within into a diversified provider of comprehensive mobile living solutions, encompassing climate control, power systems, and portable appliances across international markets.

Public listing and modern era

In November 2015, Dometic Group completed its initial public offering on , marking its transition from private ownership under EQT Partners to a publicly traded . The IPO raised approximately SEK 5.4 billion through the sale of 97.75 million shares priced at SEK 48 each, valuing the company at around SEK 14.2 billion in . Trading commenced on November 25, 2015, enabling broader access to capital markets for future growth initiatives. Following its public listing, Dometic pursued strategic acquisitions to expand into consumer and residential outdoor markets. In February 2021, Dometic purchased Twin Eagles, a U.S.-based manufacturer of premium freestanding and built-in grills and outdoor kitchen solutions, to strengthen its position in the residential outdoor entertainment market. In May 2021, the company acquired Front Runner Vehicle Outfitters, a global provider of high-quality systems and accessories for outdoor adventures, enhancing its offerings in the adventure and segments. In September 2021, the company acquired Corp. for USD 677 million on a cash-and-debt-free basis, entering the segment with a brand known for portable coolers and generating over USD 400 million in annual revenues. The deal closed in October 2021, integrating Igloo's portfolio to broaden Dometic's offerings in the growing outdoor lifestyle sector. In early 2025, Dometic announced and advanced a global restructuring program, initially unveiled in December 2024, to enhance profitability and streamline operations amid macroeconomic pressures. This included segment adjustments and restated financials to align with new reporting structures, with progress reported in quarterly updates through the year. The efforts contributed to margin improvements despite challenges, as evidenced in the third quarter of 2025, when net sales fell to SEK 4.9 billion from SEK 5.6 billion the prior year, reflecting a 6% organic decline due to cautious consumer behavior in key markets.
