Few companies can boast of being in operation
for more than 300 years. Founded in 1685, the parent company
of Iggesund Tools took its name from the town of Iggesund,
located about 200 miles north of Stockholm. Near the end of
the 19th Century, the Iggesund company began manufacturing
tools for the growing lumber business around the world and
we haven't looked back since.
One of Iggesund's most important contributions
to the wood products industry was its development of the TurnKnife®
system in the 1970's. In an industry that was plagued with
age-old methods and technology, the TurnKnife system constituted
a real breakthrough. With the growing demand for improved
chip quality, Iggesund's TurnKnife System quickly developed
an impressive roster of clients in Europe, Asia and North
America.
The decision to invest in new technology is a difficult one
and requires careful analysis and knowledge of the product as well as the
team that stands behind it. We think the key to Iggesund's success has
been our ability to work with our customers to design solutions that are
technologically and economically superior.
The idea of team-building is one which is evident in every
step of our operations. From our extensive Research and Development program
and our highly-trained sales representatives right through to our custom
engineering and after-sales support, we work with our clients to ensure that
at the end of the day they have the highest quality output and the lowest
operating costs.
We've been around for quite some time now and we've worked
hard to develop our international reputation for product innovation and
service excellence. We look forward to working with you and your organization
in proving that this reputation is well deserved.
