With a recent move to Mielec in the south of Poland, Trutek™ Fasteners Polska, is serving its local and European customers with more precision than ever before, through high-quality products, technical support and expertise, as well as a focus on new product development.

Trutek™ currently manufactures and offers a wide range of fixings including ETA certified insulation anchors, frame anchors, as well as plastic plugs and hammer screws. The company also prides itself on offering products that meet strict European and international standards, guaranteeing high safety and performance, as well as products approved for use in critical infrastructure and demanding environments.

Having recently opened a UK warehouse, as well as having key partners in Europe and the Middle east region, Trutek™ also has plans to supply the US and South American markets and, in addition, add new products to its wide range. 

Some of its latest product additions include a range of concrete screwbolts with increased loading for equivalent expansion anchors, which are fully adjustable – the fixings can be taken out after installation, adjusted and reinstalled with no loss to loadings, in both crack and non cracked concrete. There has also been recent developments in Trutek™’s gas and PAT range, with battery nailers in development – planned for launch in 2025. ETA certified anchors are currently also in testing with the aim to attain more approvals in 2025.

“We see the future of construction to be transformed by advancements in technology, sustainability and regulatory processes. With the rise of smart building materials, 3D printing, and automation, construction methods will become more efficient – reducing time and costs while enhancing precision. This is why it’s crucial for Trutek™ to constantly invest in new products, approvals, and research, to further its expertise – which is how DesignFiX was born,” comments Ben Beardon, operations manager at Trutek™ Fasteners.

DesignFiX is Trutek’s anchor programme to simplify complex calculations, ensuring precise anchor selection in-line with European Technical Assessments (ETAs) and international standards. With its intuitive interface, DesignFiX enhances efficiency and confidence in choosing reliable fastening solutions, making it an essential tool for modern construction projects.

“Our DesignFiX software provides customers with tailored, efficient anchoring solutions backed by expert technical support and a personalised service,” highlights Ben.

This personalised service includes helping customers choose the right products for their specific needs, providing on-site consultations, as well as design assistance and calculation services to ensure that the fastening systems are optimal for the project. Additionally, Trutek’s customer-centric approach includes flexible, on time delivery and customised solutions for unique project needs.

“Eastern European production is known for blending skilled craftsmanship with advanced technology, to ensure reliable, durable products meet rigorous European standards. We envision ourself as a leading provider of innovative fastening solutions globally, continuing to expand our product range and market reach,” states Ben. 

Looking ahead with a continuous focus on research and development, Trutek™ plans to introduce more eco-friendly and technologically advanced products, supporting the growing demand for sustainable construction practices. Additionally, Trutek™ is further enhancing customer relationships by taking part in key market exhibitions such as Fastener Fair Global in March 2025 – where the company will be showcasing its new crack approved anchor range, PAT and gas tools, as well as launching a new range of 20V cordless tools, to ensure the company remains at the forefront of the construction fastening industry.
