Blades Direct Joins Up with German Tooling Manufacturer
MIAMI – Blades Direct LLC is now partnering with Samedia, a German manufacturer of diamond tools and construction products. Blades Direct is the only current North American Distributor of Samedia/SHOXX.
The new partnership will enable Blades Direct to distribute Samedia’s award winning SHOXX products throughout the United States and Canada.
“We’re extremely excited about this strategic partnership,” said Eric Gervais, co-founder of Blades Direct. “Our sales and distribution capabilities, along with these technologically advanced products, will allow Blades Direct to further penetrate our presence within the diamond-blade market.”
With two production centers in France and Germany, Samedia manufactures more than one million tools per year and holds a global patent on the SHOXX technology for cutting reinforced concrete, granite and other very hard surfaces.
The manufacturing process incorporates the same bonding technique used in the automotive industry, resulting in cutting speeds that are twice as fast as standard blades.
The distribution of the SHOXX products will include Blades Direct’s existing Shocker diamond blade.
