The Story behind the Quality Brand:The high-tech knowledge found in the Olofström region in southern Sweden originates from the early 1700s ironworks. In 1885 one of the oldest brands in Sweden, the Crown, was registered as a testament to the high quality products from the region.

Since 1969 the brand is owned by Volvo Cars, who nowadays gives permission to selected companies to use the brand. Now, as then, the brand stands for quality. Techtank Automotive is a proud user of the Crown, and continues to carry on the long tradition of world-class products and services from the region.
