About Us
Adler Werkzeug GmbH & Co. KG, based in Waghäusel, has been one of the leading specialists in the manufacture of forged forestry and garden tools as well as premium tool handles since 1919. The production program includes forged axes, hatchets, splitting hammers, sappies and Hepen for forestry as well as garden hoes, field hoes, pick hoes and Wiedehopf hoes for various soil types. The tools are forged from steel; the tool handles are produced in-house in the company's own wood processing from European ash or original US hickory in large-scale series. At the Waghäusel site, the knowledge, infrastructure and experience of the entire team are bundled, enabling fast and flexible response to customer-specific requirements – nationally and internationally. In addition to its own ADLER and WAGNUM brands, the company offers private-label manufacturing of tools for customer brands as well as further processing up to the finished product. The company also produces wood briquettes.
