About Mantena
Towards the railway of the future
From traditional maintenance during breaks in service to an extended range of services to meet new requirements and expectations. This is the way forward for Mantena.
Our history and ownership
Mantena was established on 7 December 2001 as a whollyowned subsidiary of Norges Statsbaner (NSB). Mantena Sverige AB was established as a subsidiary of Mantena AS on 18 June 2007.
As part of the Norwegian railway reform, Mantena was transferred from NSB to Togvedlikehold AS in April 2017. When Togvedlikehold was wound up in December 2017, all shares
in Mantena were transferred to the Norwegian State by the Ministry of Transport and Communications. The responsibility for administering the State’s holding passed to the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Fisheries from 1 January 2020.
Mantena AS is the parent company of the Mantena Group; along with the business in Norway, this comprises Mantena Sverige AB, Mantena Finland OY and Mantena Danmark A/S.
Our location
The head office moved from Karl Johans gate 2 to Jernbanetorget 1 in Oslo in December 2019.
The Group’s operations are strategically located in Oslo. The central location makes it easily accessible to customers, partners, colleagues and other professionals.
Our business
Mantena is the largest provider of maintenance services
for railway companies and train operators in Norway, based
