About Bulten
We’re already a part of your life
Every day, we rely on tens of thousands of fasteners in cars, buildings, and consumer electronics. Without them, these things would literally fall apart. For over 150 years, Bulten has been at the forefront of innovation and production of reliable fastening solutions, delivering high-quality products to customers across industries.

In brief
Our adventure began in 1873 when visionary engineers Gottfried Rystedt and Nils Petterson recognized a need for standardized fasteners, which were primarily imported from the UK at the time. From that moment on, Bulten has been at the forefront of creating innovative fastening solutions for a global market.
Bulten has been listed on Nasdaq since 2011 (Stockholm Small Cap).

Innovation is the heart of Bulten
It’s often the things we don’t think about that need innovation most—the smallest details that we take for granted and have always worked the same way. These can offer the biggest reward because they are everywhere. That’s why we look at things a little differently, trying to change how we can make screws and bolts that are part of almost every other product.
