About company
Founded in 1915, Makita Corporation has evolved from a small electric motor sales and repair business into a global leader in the manufacture of portable electric power tools. By introducing Japan's first electric planers in 1958, Makita established a foundation for innovation and quality in the power tool industry. Over the decades, the company has expanded its product range to meet the evolving needs of professionals in housing construction and beyond. Makita was a pioneer in adopting lithium-ion battery technology for professional-grade power tools in 2005, setting a new standard for the industry. This move was part of a broader strategy to diversify its offerings, which now include a wide range of lithium-ion battery-powered tools, from impact drivers introduced in 2005 to dust extraction and gardening tools. In recent years, Makita has also ventured into outdoor power equipment (OPE), aiming to establish it as a new pillar of its business alongside its traditional power tool lineup. The company's commitment to innovation is evident in its efforts to develop tools that are environmentally friendly, emphasizing battery-powered solutions that offer the performance of engine-powered tools without the emissions, fuel dependency, and noise. Makita's global presence and extensive product range underscore its role as a key player in the power tool industry, continuously adapting to meet the demands of a changing market.
