stories. It’s Woods’ history, plus
the histories of the companies
that have become part of Woods
over the years: Du-AL™, Alloway,
Gill, Beetec, BMP™, Alitec™,
Central Fabricators®, Gannon®,
Wain-Roy® and TISCO®. These
leading brands include dozens of
patents, hundreds of products, and
thousands of parts with Woods’
reputation for durability, reliability
and quality.
