Ceratizit USA has moved its official U.S. headquarters from Warren, Michigan, to the company’s Schaumburg, Illinois, facility. Ceratizit acquired the Schaumburg facility when it absorbed the Komet tooling brand name and product line under the Ceratizit Group umbrella.
According to the company, the move will centralize its operations and enable it to better serve its customers. The company offers a full-range product portfolio that spans 65,000 tooling products specifically focused on the needs of U.S. manufacturers. Under the name Team Cutting Tools, the portfolio includes solutions from Ceratizit as well as tooling under the Komet, WNT and Klenk brand names. Ceratizit USA engineers and manufactures highly specialized, precision cutting tools for drilling, boring, reaming, milling and turning, the company says.
“Ceratizit is not just a tooling supplier,” says Mirko Merlo, president of the Americas for Ceratizit Group. “We are a reliable partner with more than a century of experience, and extensive industry and engineering knowledge. Because we encompass the Ceratizit, Komet, WNT and Klenk tooling brands and technologies, we can provide complete tooling solutions and localized support that allow our customers in industries such as aerospace, automotive, oil and gas, medical and transportation to increase their production output.”
In addition to its new headquarters, Ceratizit USA maintains two other facilities within the U.S. Ceratizit Sacramento LP is located in Rancho Cordova, California, and focused on manufacturing solid carbide round tools and microtools. The other facility is the company’s main logistics center in Towanda, Pennsylvania.
