About Company

We fight friction to move the world forward. 20% of all energy consumed is spent overcoming friction. At SKF, we’re constantly fighting that friction, to reduce energy waste and make the most of the resources we have.  Since 1907, we’ve been making some of the world’s most innovative bearings, seals, lubrication systems to reduce friction. But we sell something bigger. Less friction means more energy saved.  By seeking out and reducing friction, we’re making industry smarter, more competitive, and more energy efficient. And in collaboration with other forward-thinking companies, actually tackling some of the most pressing challenges of our time. Ultimately, helping to build a more sustainable future where we can all do more with less.
