Caparo Atlas Fastenings has an impressive history of design and development for automotive and industrial fasteners. Manufacturing Bolts, Nuts and Studs as FW Cotterell Ltd in 1887, we started trading as,GKN for the majority of the last century. In 1982, the Armstrong Group acquired GKN and formed Armstrong Atlas Fastenings Ltd. Caparo acquired the Armstrong Group in 1987 and in 2006, in line with
Caparo's global expansion, it was rebranded 'Caparo Atlas Fastenings' Ltd. Now part of the Caparo family - a major engineering and automotive group based in the UK, USA and India, we continue to move forward in the design and manufacture of critical fasteners. Over the years we have supplied fasteners for many now historic manufacturers, and continue to supply today's premier brands, including the Morris Minor and Mini, as well as products for Austin Morris, Aston Martin, BMW, Daimler, Ford, Hillman, Humber, Jaguar, Jenson, Lagonda, JCB, Land Rover, New Holland, MG, Riley, Rover, Sunbeam-Talbot, Triumph, Vauxhall, and Wolseley.
