Happy Birthday, Yellotools!
20 years of Tool Porn for signmaking
and car wrapping enthusiasts!
I never believed these stories about global brands which started in Daddy’s garage. They are fake and made-up, aren’t they? Well, now I am a living evidence of the truth of those stories!
20 years ago, I told someone „Hold my Beer!“. That’s how legendary nights or epic ideas start here in the beautiful German countryside.
I had an idea to support my very own laziness at my little signmaking shop. The original SPEEDCLIP! It was NEVER meant to be a mass product. Just a little improvement to make my day a bit better. It turned out to change an entire industry around the world! Millions of these clips were sold in the last 20 years, and dozens of competitors jumped on the train and copied them countless times!
Over 500 game-changing products should follow, such as the world's first rubber-coated magnet (SpeedMag HD), the legendary BodyGuard Knife and the Wrap-U-ezee also changed the way of treating self-adhesive vinyl.
Over a Hundredthousand running meters of (SafetyRulers) protect Signgals‘n Guys‘s fingers all over the planet. Proudly I can say, me and my amazing team saved thousands of hours of labour at signshops all over the places!
And why is that?
Well, it’s all about YOU!
You trusted us, supported us, invented with us, helped us fixing bugs and drove our passion and heartbeat for the BEST JOB IN THE WORLD: SIGNMAKING!!! 😊
Let me express my deepest Thank you for 20 years of sweat, blood and tears. Support, celebrations, praise, reproof, awesome product ideas, visits, calls, orders and words of encouragement!
Me, I owe you a great life full of love, joy and personal growth.
To my amazing team over the last 20 years, including those who left Yellotools at one point: You ALL made and make my life so adorable and worth living. Because of you all, I‘m blessed and I will always be grateful for every single squeegee, ruler or little piece of CuttingMat we sent to the wildest spots of this planet.
I really owe ya‘ll my awesome life! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Yours Michel
