PROFILE |
 |
Ever pounded a nail with a Sears Craftsman hammer? Then you've been in touch with one of Danaher's two business segments: controls and tools. Danaher's controls group (about two-thirds of sales) includes Veeder-Root (leak-detection systems), sensors, switches, measurement devices, and communications and power-protection products. Its line of tools and accessories includes Sears' Craftsman line, as well as Allen wrenches, and NAPA hand tools. Danaher has grown over the past two decades by making acquisitions then taking steps to cut costs and improve productivity at the purchased companies. The US accounts for about 75% of sales. Brothers Steve and Mitch Rales own about 31% of Danaher.
