Hultafors Group acquires US workwear brand Custom LeatherCraft

Snickers Workwear owner Hultafors Group has acquired leading US workwear brand, Custom LeatherCraft (CLC).

Established in the US since 1983, CLC's product range includes softside tool carriers, nail bags, tool pouches and personal protective equipment, with the brand known as Kuny's Leather in Canada.

Peter Dumigan, Managing Director of Hultafors Group UK, said of the acquisition: "We are delighted with this acquisition given that the CLC 'work gear' range complements the Snickers Workwear, Hellberg Safety, Hultafors Tools, Solid Gear and Toe Guard safety footwear product portfolios perfectly.

"We will now be able to offer the discerning tradesmen and women an even more extensive range of top quality premium brand products, ideally suited to the work they do on site."

Hultafors announced the acquisition of Hellberg Safety in July last year, shortly after bringing Johnson Level and Tool into the fold.
