Bosch tool sets: types and features
Sometimes everyday problems suddenly arise in our life, but this does not mean that even with the most insignificant difficulties, we immediately need to take the phone and call the master. In most cases, a real owner simply needs the right tool, with which he can settle everything in a matter of minutes. But sometimes there is neither a suitable tool at hand, nor the desire to once again borrow some kind of device from the neighbors.
In this case, every man needs a personal set of hand tools for the home, for example, from the brand manufacturer Bosch.
About company
The Bosch brand represents a whole group of companies providing services and technologies. Their field of activity also includes the production and sale of construction or packaging products.
Currently, there are many companies around the world that are engaged in the production of construction, automotive and locksmith materials. Many of them are similar to each other. but the German company Bosch differs slightly from them not only in its history of origin, but also in its market policy in general.
In the fall of 1886, a firm called Robert Bosch GmbH officially began operations in the small town of Gerlingen. It was founded by one entrepreneur and part-time engineer, Robert Bosch, who is himself from Germany. The peculiarity of the creation of such a well-known company at the moment was that R. Bosch's parents had never worked in this kind of field. This was one of the reasons for the slow but steady development of the German company.
Today the Bosch group of companies includes more than 400 subsidiaries. Cooperating with partners specializing in the sale and service of engineering technologies the German brand is represented in almost 150 countries.
Much has changed since the founding of the company, except for the consistently high quality of the products. R. Bosch has always been of the opinion that, unlike money, lost trust cannot be returned.
