A closer look at Innovation - Black and Decker, India

We do not claim lightly that innovation is a big part of our commitment to our customers. Here’s a quick look at some of our appliances and how we have thought about many small features that make the tool more approachable and easier to use:

Corded drills: The pistol grip and trigger switch are features that were a part of the drill right from the first design that was patented in 1916. Many more features have been added now to make it even easier to use such as reversing of motion, variable speeds, a keyless chuck and a well-balanced handle with a softer grip.

Cordless Screwdrivers: Our cordless screwdrivers come with an easy torque selection and magnetic holders to hold on to the screws without dropping them. The pivoting handles, long lasting batteries and built in lighting that makes it easier to use in low light are other thoughtful features of the product.

Saws: The saws from Black & Decker now have improved accuracy features along with long lasting durability. Some models are now super portable as well, compared to the earlier models – but do keep in mind that these were still the cutting edge technology of their time.

Outdoor products: We brought out the world’s first outdoor cordless product in our Cordless Hedge Trimmer, and continue to innovate in the field ever since. Our gardening tools are still among the best fuss free and low maintenance models available in the market.

Vacuum cleaners: Our vacuum cleaners incorporate the most ergonomic designs and flexible parts for ease of use. One of our favourites is the Orbit that incorporates cutting edge looks along with a wealth of design features such as easy emptying of contents, compact design and a 360 degree charging base.

Steam Cleaners: One of our most recent innovations, the steam mop uses the Smart Select technology, and with just the power of water and steam, can wipe your surfaces 99% bacteria free. The new steambuster attachment allows you to clean on higher surfaces like your stovetop and inside your ovens too.

How we can help you maintain your garden and landscape - Black & Decker, India

If you live in an independent house, or in a gated community or apartment, the need to maintain your landscaping can turn into a major activity if not planned for. Along with regular scheduling of the same, it is also a good idea to invest in some tools for this activity. At Black & Decker, we offer you many useful gadgets for an easy maintenance of your landscape and garden space:

Mowing the lawn: Though a lawn looks great when freshly laid and can add a lot of green to your landscape, we all know how it can also spoil the look when overgrown. The easiest and fastest way to keep your lawn area in check is to invest in a lawnmower. Our GR3400 model is lightweight but powerful, and very easy to use. It has an easy adjustment for 5 heights or levels of cutting that can be set with just a single lever.

Hedges made easy: Most large landscaped areas always contain a hedge on the perimeters, which really enhances the look, and helps to contain areas and keep them off-limits too where necessary. Whether a straight and even trim, or in some cases an unusual pattern, the B&D GT110 Hedge Trimmer can make a great addition to your gardening tools. It comes in a very easy to grasp ergonomic design that makes it easy for anybody to use.

Grass cutters: Have you ever tried edging a large area of lawn or overgrown grass? That can be a very difficult task especially if you try to use basic tools such as gardening or pruning scissors, not to mention the longer time it can take you. If you try our grass cutter models that can do a great job even in thick or wet grass, due to the radical E-Drive technology, you will never want to use anything else. Check out the GL310 and GL5530 models for more information.
