Where it all started…

 

The family-owned and operated company was founded in 1990 by John Speed and has been based in Corby, Northamptonshire since 1991, supplying precision engineered fasteners & components across multiple industries. 

 

From the beginning, the Technifast ethos has always been to provide an excellent level of service, quality and value and this remains strongly at the heart of our principles.  John explains, “All along our principle has been to provide a level of customer service, making life as easy as possible for our customers to encourage them to come back to us the next time they have a need for our products.”

​

As business prospered throughout the early Nineties, we built up a small, but dedicated team of sales staff and warehouse personnel in line with the company’s growth.  Long-standing customers will remember Carol Evans, who was a key member of Technifast team during the 90's and 00's and Suzanne, Sharon & David are still integral members of the company.  We take pride in taking care of our employees and this is proven by us now having over 200 years of combined experience.

​

With the business growing steadily, John recognised the need to respond to customers increasing demands for custom-made precision turned components. We invested in our manufacturing capabilities and machinery, with relocation to bigger premises in 2005 to accommodate the natural progression from a fastener supplier into a respected manufacturer of precision engineered components and CNC turned parts.

As the World evolves, so does Technifast

 

Fast-forward to 2020 and we have an established manufacturing division and pro-actively work with customers to manufacture bespoke fasteners for applications across a diverse range of industries such as automotive and aviation.  While our scope, staffing levels and operations have expanded, our quality and service has remained constant.

​​

With all the challenges the world has had to deal with over the last five years, to reach 35 years is a massive acheivement for any company.  With the continued dedication of the Technifast team and continuous investment to always trying to improve on what we do, we look forward to the challenges we're sure to be given in the next 35 years!
