THE DISTRIBUTOR’S LINK
Technifast Ltd. have announced another
milestone in the history of the company. On
January 1st 2017 the business shall complete
27 years in the fastener industry.
Corby-based Technifast was founded in 1990
by John Speed, who remains a director of the
family-run business, which is now operated
by his son, Managing Director Louis Speed.
Over the past 27 years Technifast has seen
considerable growth in its capabilities, with
relocation to bigger premises to accommodate
the company’s expansion into the manufacture
of precision engineered components in 2005.
Now, the company has an established
manufacturing division and pro-actively works
with customers to design bespoke fasteners
for applications across a diverse range of
industries such as marine, automotive and
aviation. Technifast’s latest innovation is a
range of stainless steel self-tapping inserts, in
response to the growing number of enquiries
from composite companies, especially in the
marine industry.
“We’ve come a long way since the company
was formed in 1990. As our business has
evolved, we have been able to add value to our
customers by constantly pushing our boundaries
and entering new markets. Our 27th anniversary
has been achieved with the support of our loyal
staff, some of whom have been with the company
for over two decades, and who have helped us
grow from a distributor of specialist pins into a
trusted manufacturer of precision engineered
components.” Louis Speed commented.
Technifast is an established supplier, exporter
and manufacturer of specialist engineering
components and precision fasteners. Their large
portfolio of precision fasteners spans pins,
dowels, spacers, inserts and keys, which are
reliably and efficiently supplied to industries
including automotive, aviation and marine.
