Keyang, Leading Korean Power Tool Maker, Set to Become a Global Player

[INQ. NO. 1401M20] Keyang, the first and largest power tool maker in Korea

Since its foundation in 1977, Keyang Electric Machinery has dedicated itself to making professional power tools competing with major global players such as Bosch, Makita, Dewalt, Milwaukee, B&D and HILTI, and enjoyed the biggest share in Korea for the past few decades.

Now it has grown as Korea’s national player in the power tool industry and is a living legend, at least in Korea, with two million production capacity. Keyang power tools are everywhere, at home, farm, service shops, construction sites, ship-building docks, assembly lines of various industries, etc.

Broad product range fully engineered and qualified by Korean R&D and QA

Keyang’s first debut in the market was with its 4-5 inch angle grinder. It fascinated Korean workers at sites and recorded a big hit in the market. And its succeeding models are taking its place and still enjoying overwhelming share in the market.

Since then, Keyang has added drill drivers, impact wrenches, hammer drills, circular chain saws and cordless tools as a total solution provider to compete with major global players.

It is with great pride that all power tools are fully designed and engineered by Keyang Korea R&D, and also qualified by Keyang quality standard process and tandards wherever they are built.

Keyang China factory in Suzhou is located with a well-organized supply chain in the area, and brings price competitiveness in all range of products. The company is currently focusing on Lithium-Ion based cordless range of products in the time of mobile tool age in keen cooperation with globally leading battery makers in
Korea such as SDI and LGC. It varies from 3.6V/10.8V for DIY and semiprofessional to 14.4V/18V/36V for professional and heavy users. Cordless drill drivers, impact drivers, impact wrenches, hammer drivers, jig saws, cut saws, grinders, auto screwdrivers and crimping tools are the main products.

And the company plans to expand its mobile range to gardening tools such as brush cutters and trimmers. Recently, the company launched a highly efficient and durable BLDC (Brushless Direct Current) motor- based cordless drill driver. And it plans to line up a full range of cordless tools with BLDC motor soon.

Keyang, 37-year-old Korean power tool maker, aims to be a global player

The growth of Keyang has been in line with the history of the Korean economy. With such proven technology and field experience in the Korean market, the company set out to be a global player. There are its branches in Europe, the US and China. And it plans to organize its infrastructure aggressively to raise its global position including logistics and service network in Europe.

Of course, it is a big challenge for the company to compete with big players, which are over 100 years old in the power tool industry. However, Keyang is committed to becoming one of the global players in the field by building its unique position in the market.
