The partnership marks a milestone in the Bumax international growth strategy, aimed at strengthening its distribution network and brand presence in key markets.
“We are thrilled to partner with Standart Civata, a company that shares our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction,” said Jacob Bergström, regional sales manager at Bumax. “This collaboration will enable us to better serve our Turkish customers and expand our footprint in this important market.”
“Bumax’s premium stainless-steel fasteners are a perfect fit for the Turkish market, and we are excited to work together to bring these high-performance products to our customers,” said Kuntay Ayberkin, general manager of Standart Civata. “The technical training and local support provided by Bumax will be invaluable in ensuring the success of this partnership.”
Bumax recently held a training session for the Standart Civata team in Izmir, Türkiye, to raise awareness of the unique characteristics and capabilities of its fasteners. This included a deep dive into the full range of Bumax grades and products, and how they can overcome particular customer challenges by providing properties such as high strength, corrosion resistance, anti-galling and temperature resistance.
Founded in 1982, Standart Cıvata operates as part of Norm Holding and is Türkiye’s market leader in fasteners, hardware, and customised fastening solutions. With more than 45,000 pallets of capacity in its sales and logistics centres and 15,000 tonnes of inventory spread across strategic hubs in İzmir, Manisa, Kocaeli, and Ankara, Standart Cıvata ensures delivery to all provinces of Türkiye and exports to over 50 countries worldwide. Its logistics operations are supported by its own fleet and third-party warehouse and distribution partners.

Integration with SAP enables real-time supply chain transparency, while Norm Holding’s certifications—ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IEC 27001:2013—underscore its commitment to quality and information security.
