p with CNC milling machines; lathes, precision grinders and CNC laser cutters in addition to a complete metal fabrication department. Their competitive advantage was its ability to fabricate a part if it was not available on order. With its marketing slogan, "If Frail can't get the part, we'll make it," Frank De Bartolo, founder of Fradan built loyalty within his customer base. As with any great company, Frank responded to the requests of his customers to produce the first leaf blowers in 1990 that would comply with new noise ordinance in certain towns and municipalities. After years of R&D the first units offered a significant lower noise level while at the same time developing greater power through increased fan efficiency. Thus a new company was formed, Fradan Manufacturing, and it has been designing and building new products to this current date.
