Located in the heart of the Swiss Jura, between Neuchâtel and La Chaux-de-Fonds, FELCO SA is in a region that is famous for its prestigious watch manufacturers, which are synonymous with quality and know-how.
The design of any project in FELCO SA aims to meet clients' expectations fully, according to their individual needs. In fact, the ergonomic shape, comfort and ease of maintenance of the tools, the after-sales service and world-wide deliveries, are all treated as elements of the greatest importance.
This spirit, which has prevailed throughout more than 50 years of tool manufacture, is based on a desire for complete precision, a team spirit between the various departments in the company, and a willingness to introduce innovations.
In response to advances in technology, FELCO tools are subjected to the most sophisticated of checks and tests. The materials and components, which guarantee a superior quality, are most carefully selected.
In addition, the business:
- employs 135 people in its modern factory;
- has three subsidiaries, in France, Belgium and Australia;
- exports over 90% of its products to over 100 countries.
It all began in 1945 when Felix Flisch, using his own drawing board, designed his first forged aluminium pruning shear and manufactured a high-quality and exceptionally durable tool adapted to its user. Time has gone by, the same spirit and objective remain.
At the dawn of the new millennium, FELCO, as a standard reference for professional cutting and pruning, has confirmed its position as a world leader in the pruning shears and cable cutters market.
