Since its establishment in 1946 by Heinrich Liebig, the LIEBIG brand has been synonymous with originality and innovation in the files and tools business. By 1980, Liebig had pioneered the expandable locking toggle and positive locking toggle bolt, featuring a clever spring-loaded mechanism. In 1981, he patented a tool essential for creating the perfect undercut shape to accommodate the expansion shells of the positive locking toggle.

Over the years, LIEBIG anchoring systems have demonstrated unparalleled strength in both cracked and non-cracked concrete, thriving in challenging environments such as power plants, nuclear facilities, water treatment plants, and petrochemical and pharmaceutical installations. The applications have extended beyond complex building structures to include the installation of 'super tall' chimney stacks, crash barriers, and crane installations.

LIEBIG Ultraplus and Safety Bolts have been deployed in numerous nuclear and seismic scenarios globally, including Europe, the UK, Asia, Brazil, and the USA. Civil and structural engineers widely recognize all LIEBIG products for their high quality and anchoring capabilities, characterized by engineered modularity. This modularity ensures that LIEBIG anchors can be easily adapted to create bespoke lengths and assemblies swiftly, efficiently, and cost-effectively.

In 2008, the brand and assets were acquired by the American company SIMPSON StrongTie, and ownership subsequently transferred to the Finnish company SORMAT in 2012. When the German-owned fastener specialist EJOT Gmbh acquired SORMAT in 2017, a commitment was made to reintegrate the strength and innovation of LIEBIG products, along with the associated technical data and consultation, back into the hands of engineers and contractors.
