BUILT FOR

LINEMEN.

DEDICATED

TO THE TRADE.

MADI builds lineman-specific tools that help crews stop fighting their tools, stay focused on the work, and get home safe.

OUR MISSION

WE DON'T MAKE TOOLS FOR EVERY TRADE.

WE MAKE LINEMAN TOOLS.

Linework is hard, dangerous, and demanding. MADI builds lineman-specific tools that help crews stop fighting their tools, stay focused on the work, and get home safe.

We do not make tools for multiple trades and try to force them into linework. Every product is designed around real field conditions, real crews, and the problems linemen run into every day.

OUR STORY

WHERE IT

ALL STARTED

MADI started with Ralph Stinson, a lineman with a 45-year career in the utility industry. Ralph spent years in the field as a lineman and crew supervisor. He saw what worked, what slowed crews down, and what needed to be better.

In 2011, he helped launch MADI with one of the company's first tools, the Deviner — built to help linemen remove vines with a tool made for that specific job.

"My desire is to make a lineman's work easier and more efficient through the development of new and exciting products for the industry."

— Ralph Stinson

GIVING BACK

STANDING WITH

LINE FAMILIES

MADI was built to serve linemen. That commitment does not stop with the tools we make. We believe in standing with the line community on and off the job — supporting families of linemen hurt in the line of duty and partnering with organizations that care for line families when they need help most.

We do not believe giving back has to be loud to matter. But we do believe it should be part of who we are.

FAMILY-OWNED & OPERATED

CLOSE TO THE

PEOPLE WE SERVE

MADI is family-owned and operated. Today, the company is led by Ralph Stinson's son-in-law, and multiple generations of family remain involved in the business. We are not trying to be everything to every trade. We are focused on linemen.

WE STAND BEHIND OUR TOOLS

Being family-owned means we stay close to the people using our tools. We care about the details and stand behind everything we make.

ROOTED IN PURPOSE

Family also influences how we give back — including our support of Lifeline Children's Services, a personal commitment from our owner's family.

MAKING A DIFFERENCE THROUGH INNOVATION.

From the first idea behind the Deviner to every new tool we develop today, MADI is here for one reason: to help linemen do their work safer, faster, and better.

WE ONLY MAKE TOOLS FOR LINEMEN — AND WE ARE PROUD TO STAND WITH THE FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES BEHIND THE LINE.
