OUR COMPANY - ABOUT TRUEBITE INC.
Let us tell you all about Truebite Inc. Truebite was incorporated 1985.
Our founder, Ed Calafut started research and development in 1979. He needed to de-grout bathroom tiles in his home. He quickly became frustrated with the tools and options available. Consequently, he created a custom cutting tool for this purpose. In short, the company was born. In summary, over the next several years a variety of cutting tools, drills, and grinding bits were developed using various abrasives, carbide and diamonds.
These tools continue to support the ceramic industry. They are still used by hobbyists and tradesmen today. Click here to learn more. Many leading tool and bit companies still use Ed’s patents and designs.

After several years Ed was ready for a new challenge. When not working long days or traveling throughout the United States for IBM, Ed was working evenings and weekends to slowly building the framework for Truebite. This included the development of the product line. Truebite first started out as a niche business focused on cutting bits for the ceramics hobby industry. Meanwhile, Ed’s passion as an inventor took over and the company grew in many directions.
Ed remains active at Truebite and attributes his success to doing the right thing at the right time. He believes that making his customers successful is the key to his success. Certainly, spending the extra time to help someone in need is never wasted. In other words, providing the customer with coaching, resources and direction facilitates their growth.

If we are not involved and invested in our customer’s success, then we are not close enough to provide them the support and direction they may need. Solving an issue before it becomes a problem is our goal…”[/read_more]
