About Stokvis
Stokvis was founded by Frank Stokvis in 1979. In the early years, the company mainly dealt in fastening materials within the DIN norms. However, the assortment was quickly expanded to include ‘specials’: fasteners specifically made according to client drawings or samples. Over the years, Stokvis began to specialise in products within the ASTM norms as well. Today, Stokvis Trading BV is a true ASTM specialist and has grown into one of the largest suppliers in the Benelux.
