Somta Tools was founded in 1954 by Samual Osborn Ltd of Sheffield, England, through its subsidiaries Osborn Steels and Osborn Mushet Tools. The name Somta was chosen as the acronym for these companies operating in Africa.
Still at its original site on Edendale Road in Pietermaritzburg, the Company's principle business is the manufacture and distribution of engineering components and consumables.
Somta was established in 1954 with 20 employees and today has grown to be one of the largest cutting tool manufacturers in the southern hemisphere, operating from offices and modern manufacturing facilities with a complement of over 600 employees.
Somta manufactures 25 000 standard items and a further 6 000 made-to-order items to serve local markets and export markets in 60 countries worldwide.
Somta specialises in the design and manufacture of drills, reamers, milling cutters, toolbits, threading tools and custom tools for the industrial and "do it yourself" markets.
