About SKF
SKF was founded in 1907 by Sven Wingquist, who invented the double-row self-aligning ball bearing. This innovation solved critical issues in textile machinery and quickly established SKF as a leader in the bearing industry.
Today, SKF is one of the largest bearing manufacturers in the world, with operations in approximately 130 countries and more than 40,000 employees globally. The company's comprehensive product portfolio includes bearings, seals, lubrication systems, and condition monitoring technologies.
SKF's commitment to quality, innovation, and sustainability has made it a trusted partner for industries ranging from automotive and aerospace to industrial machinery and renewable energy. The company invests heavily in research and development to create solutions that improve efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and extend equipment life.
