Our credentials

Heritage, quality and accreditation. These are the cornerstones on which we can secure your future.

From life as a family of specialist businesses to today, as part of a major international organisation, we’ve been at the forefront of the fastener industry for hundreds of years. And with our training, certifications and memberships, we’re there to stay. It’s all to give you the solutions you can rely on for the next hundred years – and beyond.

Trusted heritage

We’ve built a reputation for quality across the building façade – and across the built environment. From industrial warehouses to iconic architectural landmarks, from the Victoria & Albert Museum in Dundee to London’s Olympic Velodrome, we treat every building with the care and commitment it needs to fulfill its purpose over a long lifespan.

Tested for quality

Our UK locations feature extensive testing facilities, together with on-site testing teams, to make sure that every single SFS solution is fit for purpose. Working both for product testing and personnel training, for example, our fall protection rig helps to keep your people and buildings secured. Meanwhile, our fastener experts can be called out to projects across the UK to perform pull out tests for absolute peace of mind in the integrity and performance of our systems.

The SFS Academy

Our two UK locations host the SFS Academy: a training centre ensuring everyone in the design and build process has the highest standards of understanding and ability in fixings, fastenings and fall protection. With live demonstrations mixing practical knowledge with tutorials, your team can learn how to get the best from our solutions. And when you’re unable to make it to the Academy, we can bring it to you, with on-site training whenever and wherever you need it.
