About us
Company History
In 2020, GA Meknett AS was founded because of a merger between two well-established companies, Meknett AS (founded in 2005) and Gassarmatur AS (founded in 1987). From its inception, Meknett AS had established itself as a significant player in the supplier market for the mechanical industry and had over time built an impressive portfolio of reliable suppliers and customers operating within a broad spectrum of Norwegian industry.
On the other hand, Gassarmatur AS originated from Norgas, which had played a significant role in the gas industry since 1906. The long and rich history of Gassarmatur AS contributed to enriching GA Meknett with in-depth experience and expertise in gas-related solutions.
GA Meknett AS has its production facility in Hagan in Nittedal and operates a sales office in Lillehammer, Dokka, and Knivsta (in Sweden). This strategic presence allows us to serve customers across a wide geographical area, while leveraging our combined expertise and experience to deliver first-class mechanical and gas-related services to the industry in Norway. The merger of these two companies has created an even stronger entity that is well-positioned to meet the challenges and opportunities presented by the industrial and energy sectors.
