Bahco is an international brand within the hand tool industry, with its products designed and manufactured by SNA Europe. Its roots go back to the industrial revolution of Sweden in the late eighteen hundreds, starting with innovations such as the pipe wrench and the modern adjustable wrench. Since then, the product range has expanded with a total assortment of products that today includes over 14000 hand tools.
Bahco was born way back in 1886 and, today, the brand is a symbol of quality.
Over the years some of the world’s leading tools were created by the BAHCO brand, including the examples below:
1886: Göran Fredrik Göransson, who created the brand, used high quality steel – previously moulded to make fish hooks, to begin the production of their first saw blades. To communicate their quality, every blade carried the Fish and Hook trademark.
1891: Johan Petter Johansson patented the first adjustable spanner, which formed the basis for the adjustable wrench – a Swedish invention found all over the world.
1967: The introduction of the bi-metal hacksaw blade Sandflex® heralded a new era in metal-cutting blade technology.
1982: Bahco presented the world’s first ergonomic screwdriver. ERGO™ tools go on to win many international awards.
2013: The Ergo Tool Management System is launched at the Equip’Auto fair in Paris winning a Silver Medal for Innovation.
