Star Stainless will be responsible for stocking and supplying the Bumax range of high-strength stainless steel products to fastener distributors and industrial product suppliers throughout the US. This partnership will improve the availability, accessibility and speed of supply of Bumax products to customers in the US.

“After a long road, I am happy to see our agreement finalized. A key challenge in the US has always been the geographic size and diversity of the market. Bringing together the expertise of both companies, we can now begin the important work of raising awareness of the advantages of Bumax high-strength stainless steel fasteners in the US market and making our products more readily available throughout the region,” said Jacob Bergström, Bumax segment manager, distribution.

Last June, Bumax appointed Fuller Fasteners as its master distribution partner for Canada as part of an ongoing expansion into North America.

“When you think of stainless steel fasteners, high tensile strength might not be the first thing that comes to mind. Traditionally, this has always been the case. However, Bumax is here to revolutionise expectations, with the ability to offer high-tensile strengths previously exclusive to only high alloy steels. This breakthrough means that you no longer have to compromise – Bumax offers solutions that ensures durability and strength, without compromising corrosion resistance. We believe this product range has immense potential to transform various fastening applications. We are excited to share innovative Bumax solutions and bring them to the forefront of the industry,” said Hans Fuller, managing director at Fuller Metric Parts.
