CEO Transition at Hot Screen –
Adam Andersson Appointed New CEO, Succeeding Fredrik Skanselid

 

After twelve years as CEO of Hot Screen, Fredrik Skanselid is handing over the baton. He will continue as co-owner and board member, ensuring continuity in the company’s development. The new CEO will be Adam Andersson, currently CFO at Hot Screen. The transition will take effect on January 1, 2026.

 

Fredrik Skanselid has played a crucial role in Hot Screen’s growth journey, from a small company to an established player with a reliable product and a strong corporate culture.

 

– “We’ve had a fantastic journey together, and I am extremely proud of what we have accomplished. Now is the right time to take the next step, and with Adam at the helm, I feel completely confident about the future. I look forward to continuing to contribute through my work on the board,” says Fredrik Skanselid.

 

For customers and partners, the change primarily means stability and long-term perspective. Continuity is ensured by the fact that knowledge of the business remains within both the board and the organization. The CEO transition is a planned and well-anchored step in Hot Screen’s development.

 

Adam Andersson joined Hot Screen in 2024 as CFO and has since been part of the management team. He brings broad experience in finance and leadership from both growth companies and international organizations.

 

– “It is an honor to take over as CEO of Hot Screen. We have a strong foundation to build on, and I want to continue developing the company together with our employees, customers, and partners. My focus will be on safeguarding our culture while also leading us into the next phase,” says Adam Andersson.

In August of this year, we welcomed 33-year-old Adam from Fjärås as our Chief Financial Officer at Hot Screen. Together with his girlfriend Linnea and their two children, Melker (6) and Matilda (3), Adam looks forward to an exciting journey at a company that has already made a strong impression on him.

 

A Company with a Strong Reputation

Adam has a solid background in finance, including experience as a CFO and as a certified auditor at PwC. So what attracted him to Hot Screen? Besides our strategic location, which offers excellent transport links and proximity to his home, it was our modern facilities and, perhaps most importantly, the positive feedback from people within the company that piqued his interest.

 

“I’ve reviewed the company’s annual reports and can see that it’s a healthy and well-managed organization. I was impressed during the interview when I saw how transfer printing is produced and the strong environmental efforts behind it,” Adam explains. The recruitment process was handled by Anders and Fredrik, two of the company’s owners. “They have valuable experience in areas like corporate governance, strategy, employee relations, and corporate culture. Having them as sounding boards provides great reassurance,” he adds.

 

First Impressions and Future Plans

After his first two weeks at Hot Screen, Adam has already had a few eye-opening moments. “Initially, I thought we were producing a relatively simple product, but I’ve really come to appreciate the craftsmanship behind transfer printing. It’s much more complex than one might expect, and I’m very impressed by everyone working here at Hot Screen.”

 

As part of the leadership team, Adam will also be involved in everything from fostering a forward-thinking and collaborative culture within the company to leveraging data and information for sharper analyses and well-informed decision-making. “It’s all about continuous improvement from a long-term perspective,” he explains.

 

With Adam on the team, Hot Screen is well-positioned to continue growing and achieving success both in Sweden and internationally.
