Wiha Tools

Wiha is a premier German manufacturer of hand tools, widely recognized for its high-quality screwdrivers, pliers, and torque tools. Founded in 1939 by Willi Hahn in Wuppertal, Germany, the company initially focused on nuts and bolts before shifting its expertise to precision hand tools in 1947. The name 'Wiha' is derived from the initials of its founder, Willi Hahn.

While the company remains deeply rooted in its German heritage, with headquarters in Schonach im Schwarzwald, its manufacturing footprint has expanded globally to maintain competitiveness. Today, Wiha products are produced in several locations, including Germany, Poland, Switzerland, Vietnam, and Taiwan. Some specific product lines for the North American market are also manufactured in the United States through strategic partnerships.

Throughout its history, Wiha has remained a strictly family-owned and owner-operated enterprise. As of 2026, the company continues to be led by the third generation of the Hahn family, ensuring long-term stability and a focus on innovation without the pressure of external investors. This commitment to quality has earned the brand numerous international design and engineering awards.
