Company mission
To guide manufacturing to become sustainable.
Our take
Fractory is changing the way engineering businesses bring complex projects to life. In an industry often slowed by fragmented supply chains and outdated workflows, Fractory stands out by creating a seamlessly connected and scalable manufacturing ecosystem. Its mission is simple but transformative: to make manufacturing more accessible and sustainable by connecting engineers directly with trusted production partners through one digital platform.
It offers cloud-based metal fabrication services that combine automation, intelligent planning, and a large network of vetted manufacturing partners. And it manages the entire production lifecycle through its Multi-Stage Connected Manufacturing approach. Alongside this, customers also benefit from instant quotes and support. So the result is faster turnaround times, competitive pricing and premium quality that's trusted by more than 62,000 engineers across a number of industries.
Now the company's entering a new chapter, having recently appointed Björn Klaas as its new CEO (an industry veteran with over 25 years of manufacturing leadership experience). With Klaas at the helm and a recent injection of funding, Fractory is ready to accelerate its vision of a multi-stage connected and sustainable manufacturing ecosystem.
