Watch the story about JBF's history and our unique products.
JYDSK BARBERBLADE-FABRIK A/S
The company Jydsk Barberblade-Fabrik A/S (JBF) was established around 1930 in the small Danish town called Løgstør. In 1935 the production facility moved to Aalborg. During JBF’s first 35 years on the market, just one product was offered: traditional old-fashioned razor blades.
Towards the middle of the 1960ties, JBF started manufacturing sharp blades for a variety of industrial purposes, and the first scraper was launched around 1970. In 1971 the 1650 square meter big industrial building was built at Mineralvej 19, and this building has been JBF’s domicile since.
Mr. Morten Thomsen and Ms. Margit Sigaard are the owners and managing directors of JBF A/S.
They have both been working for JBF for many years and are taking care of the daily management of the company.
Today JBF is still a production company. Our main products are scrapers and scraper replacement blades for the professional market.
Besides that, JBF produces a wide range of industrial blades for different purposes. JBF’s products are sold through a network of distributors. We export our products all over the world.
