Höganäs AB was listed on the OMX in Stockholm 1994–2013, after which it was bought off the stock exchange, and is now wholly owned, through Höganäs Holding AB, by two Swedish holding companies, Lindéngruppen and Foundation Asset Management AB, with equal stakes and voting rights.[2][3]

The company has 1400 customers in 65 countries with more than 1500 products, mostly customer specific, from 14 production centres situated in all main continents. The company has 1600 employees and a turnover of approximately 900 MUSD.

The company’s products are found in a series of application areas including structural components for the automotive industry, metal surface coatings and iron fortification of food.

The Swedish iron ore producer LKAB has been one of the company's suppliers since 1909.
