ABOUT LEUCO NORTH AMERICA

LEUCO Tool Corporation began its impactful adventure in the United States in 1979.  Through channels of distribution and machinery importers our desire was to impact our market with the promise of innovation, precision, quality and progressive solutions to manufacturers throughout the country. 

In 1983, we opened LEUCO Tool Corporation in Illinois to provide the market with a US based technical support, stocked inventory, and a driving salesforce.  Only 5 years later, through much hard work and dedication, we were able to open our 1^st carbide service center and continued to develop our sales, delivery and excellent customer service. 

By 1995 LEUCO acquired Henderson Tool in Villa Rica, Georgia where our story of fast and remarkable company expansion really began to take flight.  Due to the increasing demands on wood tooling solutions, we hired an engineering team to produce innovative tooling locally.  Our team also created and launched what we call, “Lifespan”; a diamond tool service history program, alongside our Zero Turnaround Service program. 

Our innovations, including our HP Spirals, metal working end mills, and inch size sawblade edition have broadened the spectrum of precision tooling with a global impact.  Our North American division is led by President and CEO, Jens Schulz.  Jens has led LEUCO North America from 45 employees to over 100 with 7 divisions across the USA and Canada in his time as President.  He has landed coverage as one of the Wood Industry’s Top 40 Under 40 and has served as the treasurer of the Danish-American Chamber of Commerce among many other awards and accolades. Jens is affluent in English, Danish and German language and became a citizen of the United States in 2018.

Jens believes that building a family first work culture and a healthy work life balance is a must for successful businesses.  He strives on creating a strong leadership structure to manufacture innovative and trend-setting quality products.
