Thule, the brand of choice for enthusiasts around the world that choose to transport equipment safely, easily and in style.

Thule is more often the first name that comes to mind when buying transportation solutions for leisure or professional use. People chose Thule because it is based on a conscious decision to transport their equipment safely, easily and in style. Thule understands the needs of the customer because Thule themselves are enthusiasts. People within Thule share the same passion for an active life, full of outdoor activity.

Thule was founded by the Thulin family back in 1942. It is one of the typical Swedish entrepreneurial companies that developed quality products profitably year after year. In 1960 the Thulin family decided to concentrate the business on car related products and the first roof rack was developed.

In 1979 the company was sold to the public listed company Eldon who continued to grow the business through acquisition of a trailer business and roof box manufacturing. Today Thule is majority owned by Nordic Capital which acquired the company in 2007.

Thule manufactures load carriers and accessories for the world wide market. The design process starts as soon as the need for a new product sees the light of day. The design is based around a range of different variables, with visual appeal balancing against user needs, function and environmental considerations. Other key variables are aerodynamics and safety.

Today the Thule brand is a symbol of innovation, strength, and safety. Thule offer the most comprehensive range of load carrying solutions on the market, all of which offer innovative design, strength to carry the load, reliably and safely as result of Thule’s exhaustive testing.
