FORGED HAND TOOLS
Fiskars
Mechanical Engineering – Prototyping
Challenge
Fiskars designs and manufactures garden tools true to their iconic brand with a focus on ergonomics and performance. IDS was tasked with a short timeline to convert concept sketches into engineered and manufacturing-ready CAD models while maintaining their brand language and design intent.
Approach
Our experienced cross-functional teams worked on the Forged Family of products concurrently in order to meet a short timeline. Internal collaboration ensured consistent design was maintained between the products and frequent communication with the Fiskars product team allowed work to be approved quickly.
Solution
Attention to design, materials, and DFM produced a bold family of garden tools that are durable, feel comfortable in your hands, and work as good as they look.
