If you’ve searched online for Axminster Power Tools, you’re not alone. For decades, this name was synonymous with precision engineering, woodworking expertise, and high‑quality machinery. While our business is now known as Axminster Tools, many customers still recognise – and search for – the original name that built its reputation.
In this article, we explore the story of Axminster Power Tools, how it evolved into today’s Axminster Tools, and how we continue to supply some of the best power tools available to home DIYers, serious makers, and professionals alike.
A brand with heritage
Axminster Power Tools was one of the historic trading names used by the business that is now Axminster Tools. Over time, the company has also operated as:
- Axminster Power Tools
- Axminster Tools and Machinery
- Axminster Tool Centre Ltd
Despite the name changes, the core focus remained consistent: supplying reliable, high‑performance tools designed for woodworking, DIY, metalworking, and professional workshops.
For many long‑standing customers, "Axminster Power Tools” still represents:
- Trusted engineering standards
- Specialist product knowledge
- Long‑term product support and spares
- A deep understanding of craft and trade requirements
This legacy continues to influence the products Axminster Tools develops and curates today.
Furthermore, as our product range expanded beyond power tools alone – into hand tools, machinery, accessories, and much more – our company transitioned to the broader Axminster Tools brand.
This change reflected:
- An increased focus on own‑brand development
- A wider catalogue serving hobbyists through to industrial users
- A modern retail and online experience
- Continued investment in innovation and sustainability
Importantly, Axminster Tools still supports customers searching for its earlier identities. If you’re looking for Axminster Power Tools, you’ll find the same values, expertise, and product quality under the current Axminster Tools name.
