About us

Our Promise

“OUR PRODUCT QUALITY, CUSTOMER SERVICE AND COMPANY PERFORMANCE DELIVER THE RESULTS THAT DIFFERENTIATE US FROM OUR COMPETITORS”

Sutton Tools UK, one of the largest independent cutting tool manufacturers and distributors in the UK, was founded in 1982 by previous owner, Peter Fenn, under the name of Fenn Tool. Since our launch, the company has continually grown in size and reputation for quality of products and technical ability. Already well known as sole UK agents for many top European cutting tool brands, we began production of our own solid carbide end mill range ‘Fenn’ in 2000. Our solid relationships with our suppliers, coupled with our own manufacturing facility, has further strengthened our reputation within the market in recent years and driven us to the very forefront of the UK’s leading cutting tool suppliers.

In 2022, Fenn Tool was acquired by the Sutton Tools group, enabling us to expand our manufacturing capabilities and offer a more extensive range of tooling solutions as Sutton Tools UK.
