| Name origin | ABT is the surname of the Abt family of Kempten im Allgäu. The family business goes back to 1896, when Johann Baptist Abt's blacksmith and horseshoeing tradition began, and Abt Sportsline GmbH was founded in 1991. | The name of the company was suggested by Manfred Gotta, a German brand-development expert, when Klaus Dieter Frers founded Artega in 2006. It is a coined name and does not come from a founder's surname. |
