Rennsteig Tools, Inc.

We are a fast-growing, mid-sized company based in South Thuringia in Germany, a region with a centuries-old tradition of tool manufacturing. Today, we are one of the world’s most productive makers of quality tools for construction and industrial use. We produce quality tools for use in construction and industry at our facility in the Altersbach district of Steinbach-Hallenberg. We manufacture our products with modern, industrial methods using materials of the very highest quality. We produce handheld tools and crimping machines for cable assembly at our company head office in the Viernau district of Steinbach-Hallenberg. This is where we work with our team of around 370 employees to develop, manufacture and market our pro-quality tools. In the early 1990s, we expanded our product portfolio to include pro-quality tools for the cutting, stripping and crimping of cables. At the time, we were looking to move into other segments, and a former RENNSTEIG director suggested tools for cables, because cables and power would be just as much in demand 100 years from now.
