Facom Snapshot
A fact to commit to memory is that Facom, a subsidiary of leading US toolmaker Stanley Black & Decker helps auto mechanics and other industrial grease monkeys get a grip on things. Having shed its baking machinery and steel foundry ventures, Facom (formerly Strafor Facom) has returned to its core product: hand tools (including hammers, pliers, pullers, wrenches, screwdrivers, saws, and ratchets). Facom's products serve the automotive, aerospace, electrical engineering, electronics, industrial fitting, oilfield services, and heavy construction industries. The company's tools are sold in more than 100 countries through a network of around 5,500 distributors.
