Bahco is a premier Swedish brand with a legacy dating back to 1886. Founded by Johan Petter Johansson, the inventor of the modern adjustable wrench and pipe wrench, the brand has become a global benchmark for high-quality professional hand tools. Its iconic 'fish and hook' logo, registered in 1886, originally signified the high-grade steel used in fishing hooks, which Bahco also utilized for its superior saw blades.

Today, Bahco is the flagship brand of SNA Europe, a division of the American multinational Snap-on Incorporated. While the brand remains deeply rooted in its European heritage, its manufacturing operations are international. The majority of Bahco products are manufactured in SNA Europe's own specialized factories located across Europe, including Sweden, Spain, France, and the UK. Some product lines are also produced in Argentina and Taiwan to serve global markets. The brand continues to lead in ergonomics and innovation, particularly through its ERGO™ range designed to reduce professional injuries.
