Spring Factory

In 1983 started the manufacture of hot formed springs by a brand new Italian line. In the period 1985-1986 was built a new workshop, equipped with Bihler automatic stamping and bending machines, quenching and coating lines for the production of links and belts. In 1995 in the portfolio of the factory was added the steel magazine for AK 47 and started its serial production. In 1997 started the production of Barbed razor wire. In 1999 the factory became private with company name "Spring Factory Co. The former products and activities were developed and the nomenclature was increased by new links and steel magazines for the light-weight guns. The new owners of the company invest in new machines and equipment, as well as in quality, working conditions and personnel's qualification. The production capacity was doubled. Nowadays Spring Factory Co. is the only Bulgarian producer of hot formed springs, steel magazines for light-weight guns and links and belts for heavy-weight guns.
