Blanco was founded in 1925 by Heinrich Blanc, who dedicated his life to the basic principle of delivering products of the highest quality. From humble beginnings as a producer of galvanized copper hot water bottles, the company quickly established a reputation for innovative design and unsurpassed attention to detail.
In the 1950s, BLANCO was one of the first companies to recognize the potential and advantages for kitchen sinks manufactured with stainless steel. This proved to be the major breakthrough for the company. Soon, BLANCO was renowned for their design and quality in Europe and beyond. In 1963 the one-millionth sink was manufactured. By 1994, 25 million sinks had been produced.
Throughout the years, BLANCO has continued to revolutionize the kitchen's food preparation and cleanup area. In the 1980s, the company was the first to manufacture colored sinks made of composite materials under the brand name of Silacron. Today, this process has become a generic concept.
For more than 70 years BLANCO has been a world leader in quality and innovation. Their complete line of products includes a wide selection of functional sinks, hard working accessories, pull-out spray faucets and the popular waste chute recycling center. Each one is designed to save time and effort - and to do so beautifully.
