The global hand tools market is expected to grow 1.3X times during the forecast period. The market is expected to witness a considerable growth post-2020. Rapid industrialization and increasing applications in household and commercial sectors are primarily driving the market. Automobile, aerospace, construction, electronics, and shipbuilding are the major end-use of these devices. The tool industry landscape is moving toward sophistication and customization that can determine market leadership in a competitive scenario. Advancements in technology and the extensive usage of battery-driven devices have fueled the adoption of cordless power tools and related accessories that are light and durable. This growth factor for the substitutes is expected to challenge the potential of hand tools. The DIY culture can be one of the major drivers for these devices in the coming years with a high scope for penetration in growing economies. The global hand tools market suffered a downfall during the COVID-19 crisis as most economic activities were halted during Q1 and Q2 in 2020. Most major revenue- generating end-users such as construction, automotive, commercial renovation, and home improvement activities were affected, leading to a decline in the market sales.

  • Stanley Black and Decker Techtronic Industries Co Ltd (TTI) Chevron
    Who Owns What? Andrew Davis May, 2019 This is a redacted version of an article II found on protoolreviews.com. I remember growing up when General Motors offered different brands at different price points (until they all the brands started to overlap before GM collapsed) – Cadillac at the top end, followed by Oldsmobile, Buick, Pontiac, and Chevy. We have a similar situation in woodworking tools (also in kitchen appliances) except that in the case of tools, the multi-brand company is more often a case of acquisitions rather than organic development. Anyway, for those readers interested in the business side of tools, this column, which is a departure from my usual thread, may be of interest. Stanley Black and Decker Stanley Black & Decker (SBD) turned heads when it bought Craftsman Tools in 2017 after Sears closed 235 stores in 2015. Dating back to 1843 with a man named Frederick Stanley, the company merged in 2010 with Black and Decker. As of 2017, the company maintains a $7.5 billion business in tools & storage alone. SBD brands include: DeWalt Stanley Black + Decker Bostitch Craftsman Vidmar Mac Tools Irwin Lenox Proto Porter-Cable Powers Fasteners Lista Sidchrome Emglo USAG Techtronic Industries Co Ltd (TTI) TTI owns Milwaukee Tool and a host of other power tool companies. It also licenses the RIDGID and RYOBI names for cordless power tools (Emerson actually owns RIDGID and makes the red tools). Founded in 1985 in Hong Kong, TTI sells tools all over the world and employs over 22,000 people. TTI had worldwide annual sales of over US$6 billion in 2017.

Its claims recite a garage door opener (mobile barrier operator), a controller (found in any electric device), and a wireless transmitter—“a handful of generic * * * components configured to implement [this abstract] idea.” Alice Corp. Pty. Ltd. v. CLS Bank Int’l, 573 U.S. 208, 226-27 (2014). At trial, Chamberlain argued that its patent cov- ered all garage door openers with integrated transmit- ters that could communicate with smartphones. In the words of its expert, there are no “acceptable non-in- fringing alternatives.” The Federal Circuit, considering the claims as a whole, concluded that they were directed to the ab- stract idea of wirelessly transmitting information.

The stability provided by living in a home that is affordable over the long-term positively impacts the family’s financial status, health and overall quality of life. And the benefits don’t stop there – they extend throughout the community and the economy. Home is where “ During the last two years, the Foundation has helped build or renovate more than 27,000 homes for families across the country. While the issues “one starts from. around the increasing number of mortgage defaults and foreclosures and the rippling effect on entire cities and regions have attracted much T.S. ELIOT attention in this time, we have partnered with nonprofit organizations and local leaders to help families move into homes that they can afford to live in for years to come. This means that the mortgage or rent is manageable, but that’s just the beginning. We also work to ensure that the home is efficient so utility bills are affordable; that the location is close to schools, stores and jobs so transportation costs are low and commutes are short; and that the community includes parks and trees so residents can enjoy healthy, safe places outdoors.
