Leborgne®

We have been designing and manufacturing hand tools for professionals in France since 1829.

The excellence of Leborgne® tools is expressed through their innovative design and durability. More than ever Leborgne® now focusses on protecting the health of craftsmen and contractors by acting to reduce work strain. Leborgne® joined the Fiskars Group in 2007. Since its creation in a small Finnish village called Fiskars in 1649, the company has become an international group, present in more than 60 countries on four continents. Leborgne® has its roots and heart firmly planted in Savoie, where the Arvillard and La Rochette plants achieved ISO14001 environmental certification in 2012.

Leborgne® - number one in France in spontaneous brand recognition of hammers and other hand tools. ”

History

1173 Foundation in Savoie of the Monastery of St Hugon where the Carthusian monks forged the swords and axes used by knights during the Crusades 1 . 1829 The Leborgne family acquires the blast furnace at St Hugon 2 . 1863 Leborgne® manufactures several thousand shovels used to excavate the Suez Canal 3 . 1878 Leborgne® tools are highly prized throughout Europe, and at the Universal Exhibitions in Paris of 1855 and 1878 4 . 1880 The Lumière brothers produce the first photographic catalogue for Leborgne® tools 5 . 2007 Leborgne® joins the Fiskars Group.

Leborgne®, the trademark of the Fiskars Group for Construction professionals, is number one in France in spontaneous brand recognition of hammers and other hand tools (according to an IPSOS survey produced in 2010 for Fiskars®).

Sustainable Development

"Sustainable development is development that meets current needs without affecting the ability of future generations to meet theirs." (United Nations Commission for the Environment and Development, "Our Common Future" report 1987)

Leborgne® sustainable development process is part of a long-term view and involves a highly operational approach. Supported by the Okoumé Conseil consultancy since 2010, we set up a sustainable development and social responsibility committee to reduce our social and environmental impact. This year Leborgne® made eight commitments under three heads. 1 Reducing the impact of our organization and products on the environment: • reduce our overall energy demand (distribution, purchasing, production), • valorize and recycle our waste, • eco-design our innovative tools. 2 Promoting social responsibility in our value chain: • encourage our suppliers to control their environmental and social impacts, • act according to values and a vision shared by all employees, • fight against occupational health problems and accidents.

Strengthening our relationships with our stakeholders: • develop in harmony with our plant locations, • anticipate and take into account the expectations of our institutional partners. 3

The significant first results of our process and commitments are: • the marketing of a new range of Nanovib® tools to improve working conditions, • the use of first choice recycled steel and wood from FSC or PEFC certified forests, • the ISO14001 certification of our Savoie plants, • movement and posture training and work station adaptation, • the setting up of an Older People and Male/Female Equal Opportunities action plan, • our participation in common projects with our stakeholders ("La Route du Fer"), • the signing of an ethical charter by our employees and suppliers.

Innovation

The Leborgne® production plants (forging, assembly, logistics platform) in Savoie now cover an area of 13,000 m². In 2012 they obtained ISO14001 environmental certification. This international standard is an important management tool for performance improvement. Leborgne® has its industrial processes under perfect control. Each new tool results from direct collaboration between the Leborgne® Design Office and construction industry professionals: craftsmen, contractors and safety managers.

Recognized design Leborgne® tools are set apart by their unique design.

An identifying colour, yellow, a series of broken lines for rigour and strength, curves for comfort and safety: unquestionably, it's a Leborgne® tool. This design is repeated in the typography of the new logo.

Innovation is central to our work and global economic development, which is why Leborgne® carefully protects its inventions. Among our tools currently on the market, 20 are patented, proof that they provide "a new technical solution to a given technical problem" (according to the official INPI [French national institute for industrial property] definition).

Leborgne® tools were present at the French Design Exhibition (Stockholm), at the Saint-Etienne Design Biennale in France. In 2009, the Architect's Plumb Line won the Batimat international tradeshow Design Gold Trophy. In 2010, Leborgne® gained the Design Observer Label for the Magnetic Plumb Line, the Architect's Plumb Line was selected for the Fonds National d’Art Contemporain (French national contemporary art collection). At the Préventica trade fair, a jury of experts, made of representatives of professional bodies, leading companies and journalists, awarded the Innovation Prize 2013 (Construction category) to the new Leborgne® Nanovib® Bolt-Cutters.

The design of Nanovib® hammers won the Red Dot Design Award 2013 ”

Health in the construction industry

According to the INRS (French occupational risk prevention research institute), occupational health problems in the construction industry increased six fold over the last twenty years.

Acting to prevent work strain

It seemed stabilized in 2006, but the large increase of 2007 continued in 2010. This is due to greater allowance for and better recognition of occupational health problems, especially MusculoSkeletal Disorders and periarticular complaints (shoulder, elbow and wrist) which progressed by 79% over five years. MusculoSkeletal Disorders are now the leading cause of occupational health problems and affect nine out of ten sick leave in the construction industry.

Work strain is: "the employee's exposure, throughout their professional career, to one or several risk factors liable to leave lasting traces, that are identifiable and irreversible for health". (Law of 9 November 2010 on pension reform and according to Article L. 4121-3-1 of the Labour Code)

Since the law on pension reform, the requirement to prevent work strain is one of the general principles of occupational risk prevention. These are the relevant European Directives: • 89/391/EEC, measures to encourage improvements in the safety and health of workers, • 90/269/EEC (and Decree No. 92-958), requirements for the manual handling of loads, • 2002/44/EEC (and Decree No. 2005-746), requirements regarding the exposure of workers to vibration. The issues are referred to by the OPPBTP (French professional safety organization for the construction industry) in its "Work Strain" guide: • the social and ethical requirement to preserve the health of people at work, • high direct and indirect health costs (MusculoSkeletal Disorders are the leading cause of absenteeism at work), • the attractiveness of construction industry trades and companies.

For the better prevention of the risk factors, the single risk assessment document enables a diagnosis to be produced and an action plan to be defined for: • carrying out preventive actions and training, • investing in new adapted equipment. 1

Leborgne® has designed and manufactured the innovative tools of the Nanovib® range to offer solutions that contribute to reducing the following risk factors (fixed by Decree D. 4121-5 of the Labour Code): 1 mechanical vibration, 2 repetitive work characterized by repetition of the same gesture 3 manual load handling, 4 accidents, 5 noise, 6 postures. 6 I Leborgne® Catalogue 2014 I Corporate

Backed by experts

We have sought the advice of safety experts: professional safety bodies, health research and innovation institutes, safety managers of leading Construction companies and contractors as well. This has resulted in the launch of the new range of Nanovib® tools. On 24 April 2012, Leborgne® signed a partnership agreement with the CAPEB and the IRIS-ST (French institute of research and innovation for health and safety at work) to test and offer companies innovative tools in terms of risk prevention. This three-way agreement also ensures the impartiality and objectivity of the results. Leborgne® is also in partnership with the FFB (French building industry federation) and regularly exhibits at its trade fairs.

While there is no standardized test for measuring hammer vibration, unlike portable electric tools, and only one Decree No. 2005-746 of 4 July 2005, Leborgne® has developed a specific test and takes vibration measurements according to ISO5349-1. We are now working with the AFNOR (French standards body) and our colleagues in a standardization project for this test.

According to Decree No. 2005-746 of 4 July 2005, when a tool exceeds a threshold limit value (ELV) to vibration of 2.5m/s², the employer must set up protection measures for the worker: either to reduce the daily use time of a product, or to make available personal protective equipment for reduction vibration. The Leborgne® Nanovib® hammer has a threshold limit value (ELV) to vibration less than 2.5 m/s², which means a contractor can use the Nanovib® hammer for a whole workday (2400 strikes/day). Comparative tests demonstrate that the Leborgne® Nanovib® hammer absorbs 50 % more vibration compared with the best hammers in its class. Leborgne® is now working with the AFNOR (French standards body) on a standardization project for this test. In terms of prevention, with the new Leborgne® Nanovib® claw hammer by acting on vibration intensity you reduce it at source.

" Repetitive work characterized by repetition of the same movement is one of the risks liable to constitute work strain factors ". (Article D. 4121-5 of the Labour Code)

Currently among construction industry activities there are situations where the repetition of the same movement at a rapid rate is required to accomplish a task. These repetitions have delayed effects on the human body which come under the category of MusculoSkeletal Disorders (MSD). Leborgne® in France has designed and manufactured the new Nanovib® bolt cutters to offer a solution that contributes to reducing this occupational risk factor.

Leborgne® Nanovib® bolt cutters reduce muscular effort by 30-60% compared with bolt cutters in its class thanks to the patented compounding gear system. The reduction range is distributed in order to maximize cut efficiency from the start, when most force is required, unlike the "hinge" reduction of standard bolt cutters which is efficient only at the cut end after the bar has already yielded.

Groundwork/ Roadwork and Sewerage Tools

Leborgne速 has a complete range of essential tools for groundwork, roadwork and sewerage. Resulting from partnerships with the HESQ managers of major Construction companies, Leborgne速 takes the greatest care with the ergonomics of its tools in order to improve the work and health conditions of workers throughout their careers. The handles on many tools (shovels, rakes, etc.) have therefore been lengthened to reduce awkward postures and the Nanovib速 handle is now available on our pick axes for greater safety and less vibration.

Tools for Wood Frame Houses

Wood is the material of the future! It has many advantages for outside insulation and renovation projects. Essentially it is a natural, durable and renewable material that helps to reduce greenhouse gases. It is quite natural that Leborgne has developed, always in partnership with tradesmen, a new range of essential tools intended for professionals in wood construction or renovation. All these tools have been approved by the CNDB (National Wood Development Committee) and MBOC (Maisons Bois Outils Concept) instructors.

Safety

Notes

1. The experience of Fiskars Leborgne on the tools market means it can contribute to Distribution's concerns for in-store safety and give advice especially suited to the presentation of its products. 1.2. Various standards (in particular standard NF E25-080 of May 2005) set out the safety requirements for the pegs and materials used in store. As each point of sale comes under its own responsibility, it has to ensure that the equipment used complies with these standards, whatever its source. 1.3. Each item of presentation furniture used must have sufficient strength to support the occasionally heavy weight of some of our tools. The point of sale must also ensure that this furniture is used in the conditions specified by its manufacturer. 1.4. Consumer handling of the tools must not produce any risk of falling, especially when the product is replaced incorrectly. 1.5. Heavy tools should be positioned neared the bottom of the shelf display. There they will be easier for the consumer to reach, without risk of dangerous falling. 1.6. The cutting and pointed parts of our tools are delivered with suitable protection. Some of our tools are also delivered with information leaflets intended to give the consumer advice on safety, use and maintenance. These protection and information leaflets must remain in place so long as the products are present in store, even if these items are often stolen. This means users are guaranteed to benefit from this advice after purchasing. Simply ask the company to send you free replacements. 1.7. The tool spaces at the top of the shelf display can be a cause of risk, especially if consumers have access. 速

2. Fiskars速 gives information about its products as a contribution to consumer training so that the tools can be used and maintained in the best conditions. In order for the retailer to play its part in this training, the main advice is listed below: 2.1. Personal safety involves both the strict application of the safety instructions given on our products and the protection measures taken by each user according to the requirements of their trade, their skills and the regulations in force. 2.2. Before using any tool, the consumer should read and understand the symbols and any information leaflet attached to them. Should there be any doubt about their capacity to use the tool, they should not use it and must seek use advice from an experienced person. When using the tools, they must also ensure the safety of any persons who happen to be nearby. 2.3. Should the tool be hired out, the lender must provide the safety instructions and the borrower should comply with them. 2.4. In all cases, the eyes must be protected from the risks of any flying chips. This protection requirement is all the more necessary when the standardized symbol "1" is shown on the product, engraved in relief, or on any information leaflet. The choice of protective equipment (goggles, mask, etc.) is up to the user according to their situation. 2.5. In all cases, protection is necessary from any blows and cuts that may be caused through handling or using the tools. This protection requirement is all the more necessary when the standardized symbol "2" is shown on the product, engraved in relief, or on any information leaflet. The choice of protective equipment (gloves, apron, shoes, etc.) is up to the user according to their situation. 2.6. The original protection delivered for pointed or cutting parts should be retained and reused when storing the tools. After cleaning, the tools should be stored out of children's reach. The storing method must prevent any instability that could lead to the tools falling down. 2.7. A tool must be used for the designed use. It is forbidden to modify the technical characteristics of a tool by grinding or welding (case of wood wedges: see below). 2.8. Damaged or worn tools must not be used. 2.9. Advice on wooden handles: a wooden handle that by wear has lost some of its cross-section near the head must be replaced. Also it is especially necessary to ensure the storage conditions of wooden handles to prevent unwanted wear and drying out that can create significant play between the handle and the tool head. 2.10. Advice on refitting tools with handles: handles can be refitted to tools and spare handles are available. However, the risk of head/ handle separation should be checked. Do not use a tool if there is any head/handle movement. 2.11. Advice on tools for striking (sledge hammers, choppers, hatchets and axes): goggles must be worn. This is what the symbol "1" on products means. Never use a strike face to hit hard treated surfaces as this risks producing chips. In particular, one strike face should not be hit against another one, or a sledge hammer used to hit an axe. Always strike flat and use the specially designed strike faces. Even more than for other tools, do not use worn tools, especially those with burrs on the strike face. 2.12. Advice on chisels and wood wedges: do not use these tools on treated metals, they are not designed for this. Do not use tools that are chipped or burred. Initially, burrs can be ground off. Thereafter the tool must be scrapped, especially if there are cracks. 2.13. Advice on cutting tools (axes, hatchets, choppers, billhooks, scythes and sickles): they should be used with great care so that should the blade slip, it does not go on to injure the user or anyone else. Our websites www.fiskars.fr and www.leborgne.fr provide Distribution, the General Public and Professionals with advice on tool safety and maintenance. 34 I Leborgne速 Catalogue 2014 I Corporate
