[citation needed] Polarvagnen AB was founded in the spring of 1964 by Håkan Wallin and Bertil Holmqvist when they started their caravan production in an old barn in Junselevallen.
One October evening in 1966, the factory premises were devastated by a fire, and after several trips, the production eventually ended up in Dorotea in 1968.
The company's logo, a polar bear, was designed by Ragnar Granqvist.
[2][4] Polar Caravans was the official F1 title sponsor of the 1975 Swedish Grand Prix.
[5] The company also sponsored the F1 career of Torsten Palm that year, giving his Hesketh-Ford the name Polar Caravans.
