Martor KG is a German company based in Solingen, a leader in the safety knife sector. Founded in 1940, it manufactures cutters, safety knives, shears, industrial blades, deburring tools and graphic cutters. Innovation in safety and ergonomics has always been at the heart of Martor's mission.
Technologies and Product Range
- Safety knives with concealed blades (SECUMAX)Maximum protection: the blade is completely covered to prevent accidental contact with fingers or goods. Ideal for packaging, PVC, films and sharp materials.
- Cutters with automatic retraction (SECUPRO)The blade retracts as soon as pressure is released, ensuring a high level of safety. Suitable for intensive professional use.
- Knives with automatic retraction (SECUNORM)High safety thanks to automatic blade retraction at the end of the cut, but with a different mechanism than the ‘fully automatic’ version.
- Accessories and replaceable bladesTrapezoidal blades, scraper blades, hook blades, blades made of steel or special materials; containers for used blades, cases, belt holsters.
- Ceramic blades, graphic blades, special cuttersFor specific applications: cutting film, delicate materials, graphic uses, precision work, where a fine blade and clean cut are required.

FAQs about Martor
1. What is the difference between SECUMAX, SECUPRO and SECUNORM?
- SECUMAX = concealed blade (maximum protection)
- SECUPRO = fully automatic blade retraction (very high level of safety)
- SECUNORM = automatic retraction, but not necessarily fully automatic like SECUPRO
2. Does Martor produce metal detectable cutters (MDP)?
Yes, for sectors where material contamination is critical (food, pharmaceuticals), there are suitable versions called MDP (Metal Detectable Plastic) that can be detected by detectors in production processes.
3. Can I use ceramic blades with Martor cutters?
Yes, some models accept ceramic blades as an alternative, which are useful for cutting materials where steel wears quickly or requires corrosion resistance.
4. How do you change the blade in a Martor cutter safely?
Most models allow blade replacement without tools, with automatic mechanisms or safety systems that prevent the blade from being exposed during replacement.
5. Why is it important to use a safety knife instead of a normal cutter?
To drastically reduce the risk of cutting injuries, protect materials from accidental damage, improve efficiency and safety in the workplace, and comply with safety regulations.
