[Åshammar, Sweden, May 13, 2019.] Swedish manufacturer of premium stainless steel fasteners BUMAXhas been named one of the top ten export companies in the Gästrikland district, Sweden’s steelmaking heartland.
The weekly regional newspaper Mitt Gävle has recently published its list of the top ten export companies in the Gästrikland district in Sweden. The list is part of a report compiled by the Swedish parliament’s Research Service (RUT). BUMAX is named as one of these ten largest export companies.
BUMAX is a world-leading specialist manufacturer of premium stainless steel fasteners in a variety of steel grades, including the world’s strongest stainless steel bolts.
