The UNIHOC brand was founded in 1972 by Swedish floorball enthusiast Carl-Åke Ahlqvist in Mölndal, Sweden. Several years before that, he brought plastic hockey sticks for indoor floorball to Sweden. Since then, floorball and UNIHOC have developed together, and today Unihoc is proudly the first and still active floorball brand in the world.

Knowledge of the history of this sport is invaluable to Unihoc and forms the basis of daily efforts and plans for the future. UNIHOC is today one of the world's leading manufacturers of floorball equipment, which I export and sell in more than 60 countries around the world.

The Unihoc brand symbolizes quality, design and innovation. Unihoc's constant goal is to create perfect floorball products that contribute to the development of this sport worldwide.

UNIHOC is known for its innovative and revolutionary products, and it strives to continue this tradition. Products like the first Kevlar shaft, the successful Player blade, Curve shaft and lightweight Carbskin shafts have set new standards in the floorball industry, and Unihoc continues to bring new innovations to the market.

UNIHOC is headquartered in Mölnlycke near Gothenburg, Sweden, Unihoc also has sales offices in Chur and Luzern (Switzerland), Greven (Germany) and Stockholm (Sweden). Unihoc's vision for the coming years is to raise awareness of floorball and contribute to its recognition as an Olympic sport. He believes that this is an achievable goal, and this motivates Unihoc to take further steps. They are always trying to create new exciting products with an emphasis on quality, design and technical development.
