Upat GmbH & Co. was founded in 1926 by Max Langensiepen and has played a key role in advancing fastening technology. Notable innovations include the standard dowel (1929), press-fit plastic dowels (1939), the UKA 3 chemical composite anchor cartridge system (1963), and the world’s first self-undercutting heavy-duty TOP anchor (1986) — all developed by Upat.
By popularizing the use of dowels among tradespeople, Upat established itself as a specialist in fastening technology and earned a trusted reputation as a brand for professionals.
