Twelve awards in two competitions: Several Hilti innovations received iF and Red Dot awards based on their design quality and degree of innovation. The Jaibot construction site robot was cited in several categories and was named among the “Best of the Best”.

In the shipbuilding and Oil&Gas business segments, high quality welding, bolting, and clamping is sometimes considered an art in itself. Plus, skilled labor is always in high demand and affects the overall cost and delivery of any project. Hilti recognizes this as an opportunity for disruption, developing products that can revolutionize fastening on steel.

The Hilti Group achieved a sales growth of 13 percent up to CHF 3,872 million as per end of August 2021. Both the operating result and net income significantly increased compared to one year ago, with CHF 613 million (+38%) and CHF 466 million (+48%), respectively.
