SKF, an acronym for the Swedish name Aktiebolaget Svenska Kullagerfabriken, was founded in 1907 in Gothenburg, Sweden. Eight years later, the first factory in the U.S. had been built. Branch offices began to open around the world from Rio de Janeiro to Uruguay to Norway. By 2007, SKF had celebrated their 100th anniversary with production in 3 new factories in Asia, along with the creation of a new energy-efficient bearing product line that delivered at least 30% less friction. And today, they’re committed as ever to producing parts with zero-impact on the environment.
