KOMET of America is off to a great start in 2015. The company has signed three new Partners for its KOMET SERVICE network this January.

The addition of three new Partners—from seven to 10—represents a 40 per cent increase in the size of the network in North America.

KOMET SERVICE, which has attracted attention both in Europe and in North America since its inception in 2008, is turning heads once again with its rapid expansion. This latest bout of growth reaffirms both KOMET’s commitment to the platform and ongoing customer demand for affordable, reliable, quality refurbishment and manufacture of solid carbide tooling.

The latest Partners come from across the United States, ensuring that KOMET SERVICE be more local than ever. Cutting Tool Engineers, of Pelham, Ala.; Breckers Cutting Tools, based in Roseville, Mich.; and Razor Tool, Inc. in Stoneham, Mass., have all signed on as KOMET SERVICE Partners this January.

In the coming weeks, the KOMET SERVICE team will work with all of these Partners to train them in the quality control practices and state-of-the-art engineering and tool grinding for which KOMET is known. Each of the new Partners will also receive training in best practices for marketing, as well as a complete marketing and branding package..

I cannot overstate how exciting this is for all of us, said Tom Whennen, Manager, KOMET SERVICE North America. The energy – shared by us at KOMET and by our new Partners – is palpable. The growth we’re experiencing is a sign of things to come. In addition to this announcement and the supply program for tungsten carbide with CERATIZIT we recently unveiled, we have more in the works for the coming year.

We look forward to being partners with a global tool company, said Nate Anderson, General Manager of Cutting Tool Engineers in Pelham, Ala. The ability for a regional company to have access to the newest advances in tooling technology and tooling support is a great advantage for us. Anderson went on to echo the ethos of teamwork and support that is key to the success of the program.

Chelsey Gumro, CMO at Breckers Cutting Tools, was quick to point out the potential for customers, stating, Our decision to partner with KOMET was based on the fact that our company and their company hold themselves to the highest standards in the marketplace. With KOMET’s stellar reputation for quality, coupled with Brecker’s untouchable customer service and quality, we see this strategic partnership as a way to benefit both companies as well as provide a competitive advantage to our customers that is unmet in our industry.

Im really excited about working with KOMET. Combining Razor Tools capabilities with KOMET’s knowledge and support will result in better service, more technical options, and lower costs for our customers in New England. KOMET has a long legacy in cutting tools and has invested in R&D throughout the years. We are excited to be part of the network and to benefit from KOMET’s technology, says Tony Madiros, President of Razor Tool, Inc. of Stoneham, Mass.

Those who use industrial cutting tools are encouraged to try any of the ten KOMET SERVICE Partners located throughout North America. The transparent and fair pricing, along with the fast, expert service, are sure to garner many repeat customers.
