What Hilti does

Hilti is a global provider of professional construction tools, engineering software, and related services, founded in 1941 and headquartered in Switzerland under the Hilti Group. The company's product portfolio centers on the Nuron cordless battery platform, which spans more than 120 cloud-connected power tools and was extended in late 2025 and early 2026 with the Power Up line of 60+ heavy-duty products. Complementary offerings include the PROFIS Engineering Suite (cloud-based anchor, baseplate, post-installed rebar, and shear connector design software compliant with Eurocode and other international codes), the SafeSet anchor installation system, the HAC cast-in anchor channel system, equipment management services (ON!Track and Fleet Management), a BIM/CAD object library integrated with AutoCAD/Revit/Tekla, and onsite testing and repair services delivered through field engineers and Hilti Stores.

Hilti monetizes through a blended model: direct sale of tools, consumables, and anchoring systems; managed-service fleet programs with monthly fixed payments and bundled repairs and theft coverage; freemium and subscription software (PROFIS Standard free, Premium at EUR 250-375 per year); and professional engineering services including on-site anchor testing and technical specifications. Go-to-market combines a global direct field sales force (Account Managers, Field Engineers, Solution Consultants) with owned Hilti Stores, the hilti.gr e-commerce platform, phone-based customer service, and the Hilti Academy e-learning channel.

Customers are construction-industry professionals — primarily contractors, structural and civil engineers, and MEP installers — served across more than 120 countries, with regional operations in markets such as Greece. Distribution and pricing structures indicate a premium enterprise positioning supported by certified engineering support, code-compliance validation, and 80 years of industry experience.
