Primus Pot Gripper

The Primus Pot Gripper is a specialized camping tool designed for the safe handling of hot pots and pans during outdoor cooking. Originally founded in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1892, Primus established itself as a pioneer in the industry with the creation of the world's first soot-free kerosene stove. This lightweight aluminum gripper is a staple for backpackers and campers, providing a secure, universal fit for most camping cookware.

While the brand maintains its Swedish heritage and design ethos, the manufacturing of many Primus hardware items, including their cookware accessories, takes place in Estonia. In terms of ownership, Primus was a long-time member of the Fenix Outdoor group until 2023, when it was acquired by the camping equipment specialist Katadyn Group. This acquisition integrated Primus into a portfolio focused heavily on outdoor nutrition and survival hardware, ensuring the brand's legacy continues with a focus on high-quality engineering and outdoor performance.
