AboutCarlson Tool and Manufacturing Corporation
Manufacturing matters: “Imagine trying to get through a single day without relying on anything that was manufactured; no cars, trains, planes, bicycles… no electronic communication, no modern medicine, no means to plant, process or distribute the food we eat and so on. Manufactured items enable the very existence of modern society and yet are often taken for granted, like the air we breathe. The capacity to produce all our modern conveniences requires special tooling, molds, dies, fixtures, and precision machined components. This is what we do. This is the beginning of the value-added supply chain for manufactured goods, and it starts here at Carlson Tool & Manufacturing.”
– Jerry Edquist, President/CEO, Carlson Tool & Manufacturing
History
Since 1958, Carlson Tool & Manufacturing has grown from a simple tool and die company to the largest tooling and manufacturing facility of its kind in North America, and the reasons for this growth are clear. Carl Edquist’s vision of a responsive, dynamic company laid the foundation for expansion into new markets. Carlson’s second generation management team led by Jerry Edquist has focused on our customers and the markets they serve, adding business units for tooling, gundrilling, deephole drilling and contract machining to further support our customers.
Today, we offer all of these services and more from our 104,000 square foot, ISO-certified facilities in Wisconsin. Diversification has enabled us to meet the needs of a global clientele. More importantly, it has given us the strength and flexibility to weather economic storms. It’s this legacy that makes Carlson your ideal partnerfor the long-term.
