The idea behind The Demolition Stick, patent pending, was sparked in an unexpected place: the ice arena.

In the world of ice maintenance, workers often rely on hand-held ice chippers—a tough, repetitive task that takes a toll on the body. Seeking a smarter solution, we developed a better way. We created a Soft Touch system, patent pending, that connects a long body hammer drill to a chisel, transforming the manual labor of ice removal into an efficient, upright task done with power and precision.

While we built it for the ice, we quickly realized the Demolition Stick had potential far beyond the rink.

By allowing operators to stand up while using a hammer drill, we discovered applications across the construction, remodeling, and maintenance industries. Whether it’s removing tile, busting concrete, chipping flooring adhesive, drilling stem walls or asphalt, the Demolition Stick helps workers get the job done without kneeling, crawling, or crouching—improving ergonomics, reducing strain, and creating a safer, more productive work environment.

At Havelina Tools, the Demolition Stick is our first answer to that mission. And it won’t be the last.
