Fractory is an automated on-demand manufacturing platform connecting engineering and manufacturing companies. We provide a full service — from quoting to manufacturing and delivery, taking responsibility for every step. In 2023, the Financial Times listed us as the #32 fastest-growing European tech startup.

Led by its CEO Martin Vares, a Forbes 30 Under 30, the company was started by three founders in 2017 and has rallied more than 70 European teammates around the vision of making manufacturing more efficient and more sustainable.
