FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
G-Man Tools produce saws and saw blades, and we distribute our products all over the global market. Sustainability is a global challenge, so we collaborate, think and innovate to implement more sustainable manufacturing practices and to reduce our carbon footprint, and we believe a good business plan today involve sustainability goals. Our environmental goals towards 2025 is to reduce our energy consumption with 50% and our water consumption with 85%, measured from 2022, as well as to increase the use of sustainable and locally sourced raw materials for our products.
By switching to more energy-efficient equipment we have already reduced our energy consumption with 35%, and by implementing circular water in our production we reduced our water consumption with 50%. As a result of collaboration and implementation of sustainable raw materials, we began to produce a new bio-composite handle for our saws.
The new handle is made from almost 100% bio-based materials (wood fibers and bio-based plastic), and by using the bio-composites we have reduced our carbon footprint with 65%. The wood fibers in the bio-composite material comes from sustainable forest industries and are certified, and the material is easy to recycle. Of course it complies with the requirements of REACH. Then it smells good/wood too.

WOOD FIBER HANDLE – 65 % LOWER CARBON FOOT PRINT
Today, all our hand saw’s have bio-composite handles, and the goal is to equip all of our products with a bio-composite handle.
