No matter how our technological progress is made, not all tasks cannot be done by machines alone. Manual work is indispensable for the industry, and tools have been helping these workers. Tools can be said "partners" of people because tool realizes wish and dreams of people through becoming a part of the hand of the person using it.
Since founding, Tsunoda Co., Ltd. has consistently developed and manufactured hand tools that meet demands of times. Those hand tools have been highly evaluated by customers both inside and outside Japan. With our faith of manufacturing company, we hear voice of users carefully and enhance these opinions to our products. and we also have highly functional production line to realize them. This is the reason of the evaluation.
Tools have to evolve to adapt changes of time, new industries and services in the market. "Anytime anywhere Tsunoda's tools support creation and lives of people." We always bear this in mind and keep going forward to the future, along with customers.
