120 years of Altendorf: precision that connects generations.

For 120 years, Altendorf has been part of workshops around the world.
But what truly stands there are people. People like you. With ideas. With ambition. With pride in their work.

This page belongs to you.

Since 1906. With you.

History

Since 1906.
From an idea came a standard.
From a machine came trust.

People

Without you, there is no Altendorf.
For 120 years, people have shaped this brand.

Products

From a pioneering product to an icon.
It’s not the machine that takes center stage. It’s you.

Future

The future doesn’t start tomorrow.
It starts in your workshop.

120 years of pioneering spirit, quality and trust

It all began with an idea.

In 1906, Wilhelm Altendorf had a vision: saws should become more precise, safer, and easier to use.

What started back then has transformed woodworking around the world.

But our story is more than technology. It is the story of workshops that have grown. Of businesses that have shaped generations. Of people who give their best every single day.
