Swanson Tool Co, Inc. is a wholesale building materials company headquartered in Frankfort, Illinois, with 51-200 employees. It manufactures and distributes carpentry tools, including the Swanson Speed Square, from its headquarters in Frankfort. The Swanson Speed Square and the One-Number Method for determining roof pitch were developed in 1925 by Albert J. Swanson, and Swanson Tool Company, Inc. was established in 1945 to manufacture and sell the square through recognized channels of distribution. In 1989 the Allemand Family purchased the company and expanded and upgraded the product line to meet customer needs. Recent updates to the Speed Square include finer graduations for accuracy, black-filled graduations for readability, a matte finish to reduce glare, and the Diamond cut out as a trademark feature. The company operates in the wholesale building materials industry and maintains a website at swansontoolco.com.
