Iggesund Tools can trace its roots all the way back to 1685. That is when an ironworks was established beside the Iggesund River in Sweden, a plant that was later to change its name to Iggesund Bruk. The mill continued to produce iron for more than 250 years.

In more recent times, Iggesund Bruk has produced sawn timber products, pulp for paper and board production, as well as the production of knives saw blades and debarking tools. On September 1, 1983, the tools division was reorganized into an independent, family-owned company called Iggesund Tools AB.

Today, Iggesund Tools is the world’s leading supplier of knife-based systems for the pulp and sawmill industries and debarking tools for sawmill applications.

The company develops, manufactures and sells its products and services via own companies in Sweden, Norway, Finland, Germany, France, the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
