Makita was founded in 1915 in Japan as a company actively in repair and maintenance of electric street lamps, electric engines and transformers. The variation of the Makita products is very large. More than 700 different models with sometimes several voltages are daily produced. During the last years the company invested enormously in the renewal of the range, this to improve the security and the comfort use, the sound level and the number of ultrasounds are drastically controlled.

It is the objective of Makita to become the best supplier of electric tools. For this reason Makita has chosen, since the beginning period to produce professional tools with best quality, and the best possible service support.
