Historical Background
Bridon's name is a portmanteau of "British" and "Doncaster," tracing its wire rope heritage in Doncaster to 1789. British Ropes was formally established on 6 June 1924 through the merger of eight companies, acquiring seventeen more over the following two years. In 1974, the parent company adopted the name Bridon Ltd. Bekaert fully acquired Bridon-Bekaert in 2018, and the Bridon-Bekaert identity was disestablished in late 2023.
