Formerly named Huck Fastener Fasteners was acquired by Alcoa Group in 2002 and renamed Alcoa Fastening Systems. In 2014 it was again acquired by Firth Rixson, a jet engine parts producer and renamed Alcoa Fastening Systems & Rings (AFSR). The new machine purchasing plan will be completed by Q1 2016 and it is expected that after the completion of this plan the position of the company in the automotive, building, and civil engineering sectors can be further reinforced and consolidated.
“Our aim has always been to provide world class fastening solutions for complex geometries, to fulfil challenging corrosion performance requirements, as well as providing safety-critical and multi-material combinations for hybrid structures across a variety of markets. These customer expectations are exceeded and delivered by a highly-trained, organized, happy and empowered workforce, with health and safety at the heart of everything they do. I see this every day and that’s why, 30 years on, we are still a company with ambition, potential and bags of ideas,” said Operations Director Jonathan Craven of AFSR.
