Since 1755, Johann Offner Werkzeugindustrie GmbH has manufactured metal products at its site in Wolfsberg in the Lavanttal Valley. Originally a nail and wire factory, the company switched its focus to producing forged hand tools during the 20th century and today is one of Europe’s largest manufacturers of long-handle tools for gardening, agriculture, construction and clearing snow. It has always been a family business, and it is now in the hands of the eighth generation of the Offner family. The company’s core focus is processing metals to produce high-quality hand tools. Steel is carefully forged into forks, rakes, hoes and scythes which are used worldwide, while pressing, forming, hardening and finishing high-quality steel and aluminium produces durable spades, shovels and snow clearing tools that meet all the demands of their users, however challenging. But it’s the people who work for Offner who are the beating heart of the company. The team consists of experienced, highly motivated staff whose priority in everything they do is to ensure customers get the best possible products and service. From Purchasing to Production and Sales, around 120 employees work hard every day to make this goal a reality. The high-quality tools are distributed and sold via wholesale and retail trade using the long-standing partnerships Johann Offner Werkzeugindustrie GmbH has established, and the large number of exports to customers around the world reflects the reputation these tools enjoy.
