Reliability
Our products are used in industry, in professional passenger car and commercial vehicle workshops, and in motorsport. They are also used in aviation maintenance, the maritime sector, the two-wheeler sector and the renewable energy sector. In short, wherever reliability under extreme conditions is essential.
Quality
High-quality materials and excellent workmanship in accordance with the highest technical and safety standards, often far exceeding the prescribed standards. That is our understanding of quality! That is premium!
Durability
Many of our tools are designed to last a very long time when used correctly and well looked after. It is not uncommon for them to be passed down over many years or even from one generation to the next. Through our spare parts service, we enable the repair of wear parts for numerous tools, e.g. ratchet internal components. In this way, we help to ensure a long service life and the continued use of our tools.
Sustainability
As well as having a long length of service in their own right, our tools are used to maintain and repair other products. This means these products can continue to be used, rather than being replaced prematurely. In this way, our tools support repair, value retention and the responsible use of resources.
Development expertise
We carry out our own development and design work. We always keep our finger on the pulse. Our approach is practical and innovative. Every year, we expand our portfolio with attractive new products, practical solutions and innovations that often generate a great deal of enthusiasm amongst our users.
Manufacturing expertise
We have four plants in Germany, each housing modern, state-of-the-art production facilities with integrated, cutting-edge technologies incorporated into our production processes. These range from traditional forging to ultra-modern CNC-controlled production units and so-called ‘CoBots’, or collaborative robots. As a result, the proportion of our ‘Made in Germany’ products within our entire product portfolio is exceptionally high.

Our history
HAZET was established in 1868 by Hermann Zerver. The brand name “HAZET” stems the initials of its founder, where the “H” (HA in German) stands for Hermann and the “Z” (ZET in German) for Zerver. HAZET is now a fifth generation family business. We have achieved a number of milestones together since the company was founded and are proud of where we are now.
