Why One Size Doesn’t Fit All: How Fabrika Crafted the Ideal Solution for Podek

Meet Podek ApS: based in the heart of Jutland, stands at the forefront of aerated concrete solutions

Podek is a trusted name in the construction industry, specializing in high-quality tools and innovative solutions for processing aerated concrete. Founded in 2000 with roots dating back to 1987, the company builds on decades of expertise to deliver tools and products that streamline workflows for fitters and bricklayers.

Their offerings include custom and standard curved blocks that add both flexibility and style to construction projects, as well as precision-engineered tools designed to make working with aerated concrete easier and more efficient. Today, under the leadership of Ejvind Hasselstrøm, Podek continues to set the standard for quality and consistency in the industry.

The challenge and why Customization was Key

Podek’s challenge was clear: their previous supplier couldn’t deliver an optimized motor and gear solution, which threatened their production capacity and customer satisfaction—a value they hold in the highest regard. That’s where we stepped in, offering not only a technical solution but also the reliability, flexibility, and support they were seeking.

Ejvind shared:

“We approached Fabrika because we had heard positive reviews about their products and service from other companies in the industry.”

This initial trust laid the foundation for a partnership that, for us, wasn’t just about motors; it was about providing customization and reinforcing Podek’s already strong position in a demanding market.

But what really set this collaboration apart? Podek’s glowing feedback:

“We would emphasize their high quality, excellent customer service and their ability to understand our specific needs. Their technical expertise and willingness to adapt the solutions to our requirements is also something I would highlight as a strong advantage of working with them.” _ Ejvind Hasselstrøm

Tailored solution, real impact

At Fabrika, we don’t just deliver motors – we deliver solutions.

When Podek approached us, they didn’t need “just another motor.” They needed a custom, compact, and efficient solution for their aerated concrete saw—a tool that plays a crucial role in their operations and their mission of making life easier for craftsmen.

The result?

A single-phase 0.75kW helical geared motor, tailor-made with a special shaft to seamlessly integrate into their existing frame. Delivered as a fully assembled unit, it was ready for Podek to mount and put to work immediately — furthering our fulfillment in this collaboration, especially knowing that with this challenge overcome, Podek will launch their upgraded saw on march, 2025.

Collaboration that fuels Success

We take pride in being more than just a supplier; we’re a partner. Podek’s success is our success, and we look forward to many more projects where we can deliver not just what’s needed but what’s truly transformative.
