Manufacturer overview
PICARD's history began in Wuppertal-Cronenberg in 1857 with Johann Hermann Picard's toolmaking business. The manufacturer specializes in hammers and striking tools, with designs adapted to different trades rather than a single general workshop pattern. Its portfolio is particularly relevant to carpentry, roofing and other applications where the head shape, balance and handle configuration affect the way a tool is used.
PICARD's manufacturing background centers on forged striking tools. The company became part of the Erwin Halder group in 2017 while retaining its Wuppertal production heritage. Products such as its carpenter's hammers and Alutec models illustrate the specialization of the range. For dealers, PICARD offers a distinct trade-tool identity within the broader hand-tool category, especially when customers request a particular hammer form or professional application.
