In 2018, we began and expanded our ability to manufacture high run production parts. Our Production department started simply as running some extra parts to help out one of our long time customers. When that proved to be successful, we had the opportunity to take on these parts a bit more long term.

Though we are a few weeks into 2019, we feel it is never too late to be thankful for what the year has given us.  2018 was a big year for Northwest Tool. We are so grateful to have a fantastic group of employees (and their families), vendors, and some awesome customers that help make us so successful. We couldn’t do it without all of these people – so Thank You.

Northwest Tool & Manufacturing once again had a float in the Wausau Holiday Parade. On November 30th, employees and families of Northwest Tool gathered to hand out goodies and kick off the holiday season along with about 90 other participating organizations.  Our theme was “Building Quality Since 1965,” which included the construction of a gingerbread house. Thank you to Wausau Events for putting on a great parade again this season.  It was a great time!
