Rennsteig Punches, Chisels & Wrecking Bars

Rennsteig is a mid-sized company based in South Thuringia in Germany, a region with a centuries-old tradition of tool manufacturing.

This is where we work with our team of around 400 employees to develop, manufacture and market our pro-quality tools.

On 1 July 1991, we became an independent subsidiary of the prestigious KNIPEX-Werk C. Gustav Putsch KG in Wuppertal (NRW, Germany). Since then, we have transformed ourselves into a successful and integral part of the KNIPEX Group.

Our company’s traditional roots lie in our factory in the Altersbach district of Steinbach-Hallenberg, where production was already underway in 1959 with a workforce of 29. Today, we are one of the world’s most productive makers of quality tools for construction and industrial use.
