Despite the unprecedented and ongoing fluctuations effecting the fastener world, London Screw, one of the world’s oldest screw and bolt manufacturers, states it has remained a consistently steadfast supplier to the UK distribution industry and is now looking to invest in the future.
London Screw Company Limited manufactures a wide range of standard fasteners in the Black Country, the traditional heart of the British fastener manufacturing industry, to the west of Birmingham. Known for its range of short Allthreads (stud bolts to DIN976-1), the company also supplies a wide range of machine and security screws.
Currently, London Screw sells its production exclusively to UK distributors. This provides significant scope and many opportunities for international growth, especially in Europe with the benefit of zero duty between the UK and the EU.
“In anticipation of the effects of the implementation of EU AD676, anti-dumping duties on Chinese steel imported fasteners, the time is right for London Screw to broaden its horizons and ‘change a challenge to a chance’ by offering spare bulk production capacity to our European neighbours,” comments the company.
“The London Screw Company has always adapted to change and considers the current market volatility as an opening for UK manufacturing. With this in mind, London Screw is now looking to invest in the future and seeks partners to help develop this historic company for the economic and environmental challenges of the next 150 years.”
