ABOUT US


MILWAUKEE TOOL AT A GLANCE

Picture2

Since the company began in 1924, Milwaukee Tool has led the industry in developing innovative solutions that deliver increased productivity and unmatched durability for professional construction users. Whether through our industry-leading M12™, M18™ and MX FUEL™ cordless systems, the ground-breaking performance of our M12 and M18 FUEL™ products, jobsite lighting, time-saving accessories or innovative hand tool and storage products, we are dedicated to delivering a continuous flow of advanced, trade-specific solutions....

POWERING A REVOLUTION THROUGH LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES

Picture3

Milwaukee Tool achieved a major milestone in the industry when we invented the technology that enabled the use of lithium-ion in power tools. It was an achievement that marked a turning point for every trade in the industry and spurred the question whether battery-powered tools are the future of the jobsite. At the time, no one believed in this technology more than our team. We knew that the cordless jobsite wasn’t just a fad, it was the future.

SO, WE STARTED OUR JOURNEY.

First, we continued to set ourselves apart by developing a unique ecosystem within our cordless tools consisting of battery pack technology, motors and tool electronics. We assembled the very best team of engineers and industrial designers to give these components life within solutions that would change the lives of our users. Additionally, we made the strategic decision to design, develop and manufacture our own battery packs and motors in-house, while investing in electrical engineering resources to design and develop leadership in electronic capabilities; something unique within the industry.

Second, we set out to change the lives of our users by pairing this technology with our focus on the trades. We introduced the M18™ and M12™ Cordless Systems and made a commitment to our users that we continue to deliver on to this day: We would continue to invest in new technology without the need for our users to change platforms; we’d never leave them behind.

ONE TEAM, ONE FOCUS–THE USER


Each page of our story has been written by the hands of the people behind our doors, from our research and development teams to our robust sales and support teams. When the ink dries, their passion and talent is what truly has left the biggest mark, and that’s what continues to write our story....

At the turn of the millennium, Milwaukee Tool was best known for legendary durability and iconic products like the Sawzall,® but we had admittedly lost focus. We were dabbling in many different areas, trying to be a brand for everyone.

So, in 2005, when Techtronic Industries Co. (TTi) acquired Milwaukee, we decided to go back to our roots and refocus on solving problems for those in the mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) trades.

With a renewed focus on the professional trades, we set out to provide “disruptive innovation.” Instead of making assumptions about what the user needs, our team set out to deliver this disruptive innovation by getting out on the jobsite, alongside the professionals, to understand the challenges they encounter from the time they wake up in the morning until the time they go to bed at night.

This mindset and unrelenting focus on the trades began our own internal “revolution,” a period that continues to this day and has enabled us to break away from what was expected of us as an electric power tool manufacturer to become progressive problem-solvers across multiple tool and accessory categories.
