March marks National Women’s History Month, and this year’s theme, “Women Who Advocate for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion,” casts a deserving spotlight on the powerful impact women have across all sectors. Specifically, it’s a time to honor the steadfast women in skilled trades and DIY professions—a sphere where they have historically been underrepresented.
Shattering the Glass Ceiling with Tools in Hand
Women in the skilled trades are not just challenging the status-quo; they are shattering it. With every power tool they wield and every piece of workwear they don, they’re dismantling stereotypes and building a more inclusive future.
At toolant and InoKraft, we understand the significance of ergonomics and the need for tools that are built to fit a woman’s hand. With lighter, more compact designs, most of toolant products are engineered to reduce fatigue and increase efficiency, without compromising on performance. Women in skilled trades can now operate with heightened comfort and precision, breaking away from the outdated one-size-fits-all mentality that has long prevailed in the tool industry. Take, for instance, InoKraft MaXpray M1 Airless Paint Sprayer demonstrated in the following video; its sleek and lightweight design ensures seamless operation, accessible to anyone without unnecessary complexities.
Work Appereal Fit for Women
Balaena gloves at toolant are crafted with a keen understanding of hand proportions, drawing inspiration from the diversity of women’s hands. Designed to be unisex, the gloves offer a fit that is tailored to accommodate various finger and palm proportions typically found in women’s hands. By incorporating these considerations into our design process. The gloves provide a comfortable and ergonomic fit for a wide range of users.
A Commitment to Education and Growth
InoKraft and toolant are not just a product provider — we are a resource for learning and empowerment. the website offers tips, tutorials, and articles that encourage women to expand their skills and knowledge in trades and DIY projects. We believe that education is a powerful tool for growth, and by sharing this knowledge, we support women in building a foundation for success in their chosen fields.

They are constructing a world where equity, diversity, and inclusion are the cornerstones of every industry. By supporting women in trades, we’re not only applauding their individual achievements but also reinforcing the importance of their advocacy for a more balanced and fair work environment.
