TENZ International Ltd.
2021 Taiwan Excellence Award

TENZ® wood building screws with TENZ Stairs Thread Technology® are self-screwing, made from special carbon steel, hardened and galvanized for protection. This technology makes work fast and easy with less effort.

The secret are the stairs along the thread called “Stairs of the Peak (SP)” and “Stairs of the Vale (SV)”. Their precise shape makes it possible to displace the wood fibers in a gentle way. TENZ Stairs reduce contact surfaces between screw and wood, thereby reducing friction along the thread up to 50% and significantly minimizing the screwing torque and the energy required. One battery charge can screw you up to twice as many screws than before, and the tool life increases up to factor 10.

Worldwide around 2,000 tons or 2 billion of screws are used – every day. The therefore used energy can be reduced by up to 50% with TENZ Stairs Technology®. The use of the TENZ energy-saving screw offers potential energy saving in construction projects never seen before!
