DISCOVER THE BAHCO'S 165 YEARS OF HISTORY.
Göran Fredrik Göransson founded Högbo Stål and Jernwerks AB in Sweden to produce the highest quality steel, pioneering the Bessemer process and unknowingly laying the groundwork for our first saw blade.
Göran used the high quality steel, previously moulded to make fish hooks, to begin the production of our first saw blades. To communicate their quality, every blade carried the Fish and Hook trademark.
Johan Petter Johansson invented the adjustable spanner, which formed the basis for the adjustable wrench - a Swedish invention found all over the world!
Berndt August Hjorth bought Enköpings Mekaniska Verkstad in its entirety from Johan Petter Johansson - it shortened it's name to become known as Bahco.
The introduction of the bi-metal hacksaw blade Sandflex® heralded a new era in metal-cutting blade technology.
Bahco presented ERGO™ screwdrivers. Our tools are the only choice for professionals who know only the best will do.
The Tool Management system configurator is winning a silver medal for innovation.
Storage Hub State of the art trolley to suit the European standards.
After Göran Fredrik Göransson had established his steel mill in 1862, the European steel industry in the eighteen seventies had a long depression with low prices for general steel and crude steel products. The prices for processed steel were much better, which created an interest in processing the steel further. In 1876 the existing steel rolling mill was changed to produce so-called milled steel.
When the production of saw blades commenced in 1886 there was a need for a brand, which could communicate the blades' special properties and quality, and the choice was - quite naturally - the fish and hook.
