Historie

Alf Nøsted, a civil engineer, came to Mandal as a technical consultant to work at Mandals Spiger- of Ståltaufabrik in 1927. After gaining solid experience in wire and wire technology, he brought with him local investors and built his own factory in 1939. Norsk Kjettingindustri a.s - Alf Nøsted - saw the light of day in May the same year. His son Arve Nøsted took over the management in the mid - the 50s.

In 1983, they took the consequence of the importance of the North American market and bought Chaine Select inc in the province of Quebec in Canada. The same year, Arve's son, Alf-Arne, took over the management of the company.

Zernichow, fourth-generation Nøsted, took over the responsibility as general manager. In 2019, several companies, including Nøsted Kjetting AS (formerly TRYGG chain) were merged into one company; Nøsted &. TRYGG is, therefore, a brand produced by Nøsted &
