Metabo: Professionals in Tools and Accessories

Metabo is a manufacturer of professional power tools and accessories. Since its founding, the company has introduced innovative improvements and more efficient ways of working. Its products are valued not only by large construction companies but also by individuals who prioritize quality and safety.

A Century Since the First Hand Drill

Metabo was founded by Albrecht Schnizler in Nürtingen, Germany, in 1923. He created his first hand drill in his parents’ bakery. By 1934, the company introduced its first electric hand drill, followed in 1957 by the hammer drill, which was produced in large series. Since then, Metabo has regularly introduced professional products for construction, renovation, metalworking, and the metal industry. The company also focuses on cordless solutions, providing freedom of work while maintaining maximum performance. Today, Metabo holds over 550 patents and utility models.

Professional Employees

Metabo continues to operate its manufacturing in Nürtingen, Germany, but has expanded with a production plant in Shanghai, as well as 25 subsidiaries and 100 representatives worldwide. The company directly employs about 2,000 people globally, with 1,200 in Nürtingen alone. Recognizing the importance of the production process, Metabo places great emphasis on the satisfaction and professionalism of its employees. It has even established a company school to train specialists professionally.
