HISTORY
Due to increasing competition and cost pressures in the course of globalization, LUKAS began to pursue an intensive and rapid strategy to secure an international presence. In 2001 the brand began to be introduced, by our first specialized distributor in Latin America, to industrial customers concerned with process optimization, cost reduction, increased productivity and the use of more comfortable and safer tools and abrasives.
LUKAS is there when a next-level solution is needed.
What LUKAS’ plan looks like
Because we want to combine the strengths of the brand with an excellent service to our end customers, we will start working with distributor partners also in the other countries and different industrial centers from the region, not limiting ourselves to a basic buying and selling relationship, but participating closely with the support of a highly qualified sales team, offering technical and practical training of the products, and a strong commercial assistance.
Come and be a part of this next level solution.
