Draper Tools has launched its centenary edition catalogue, to commemorate 100 years of business. The new publication reflects the company’s commitment to broadening its range and features 928 pages of tools and equipment, with a new structure and order making product selection easier.


The centenary edition catalogue is Draper Tools’ biggest one yet and includes over 900 new products for 2019. New highlights include the impressive D20 power tools range and a completely new collection of storage chests and cabinets. The new catalogue also sees Draper Tools investing heavily in its ever-growing automotive range for the professional workshop, with new equipment such as a digital wheel aligner, a hydraulic scissor jack and a series of pneumatic jacks.

Chairman of Draper Tools, John Draper, comments, “We are proud to have reached this important milestone in our company history and would like to thank everyone who has helped us get here. Although we have grown a lot over the last century, we still like to think of ourselves as a no-nonsense, customer-focused tool supplier. Quality and reliability are still very much at the heart of the business and this will continue as we progress and grow into 2019 and beyond.”

Originally established in 1919 by Bert Draper, Draper Tools is still family owned and run today by the fourth generation of the Draper family. To mark the momentous occasion, the centenary edition catalogue opens with a personal welcome note and message of thanks from the Draper family. The family have always had a strong involvement in the creation of the catalogue, stretching all the way back to 1953, when Joan Draper produced, almost single-handedly, the company's first type-written catalogue. Joan Draper, wife of former chairman Norman, passed away in 1999 but the staff at Draper Tools feel the new centenary catalogue is a fitting tribute to her legacy, and something she would have been very proud to see.

The year-long celebration of the company’s 100-year anniversary iwill also feature exclusive promotions, competitions, charity fundraising and a staff party. Each month there will also be special edition centenary products launched.
