Grohe is a leading global brand for complete bathroom solutions and kitchen fittings, with a rich history dating back to 1911 when it was founded as a ferric hardware factory in Hemer, Germany. Today, it is part of the Japanese Lixil Group, a manufacturer of pioneering water and housing products, following a €3 billion acquisition in 2014.
With its headquarters in Düsseldorf and operations in over 150 countries, Grohe employs approximately 6,000 people worldwide. The company is known for its commitment to quality, technology, design, and sustainability, reflected in its wide range of products and services. These include dedicated portfolios such as Grohe QuickFix, Grohe Professional, and its premium sub-brand Grohe SPA, catering to the specific needs of professional business partners and their target groups.
Grohe contributes to Lixil's Impact Strategy with a resource-saving value chain, focusing on CO2-neutral production, reducing unnecessary plastic in product packaging, and developing water- and energy-saving technologies like Grohe Everstream, a water-recirculating shower. The company's commitment to sustainability and innovation has earned it recognition, including being listed in Fortune's "Change the World" ranking in 2017.
Through its hybrid communication ecosystem Grohe X, the brand connects people and provides further industry impulses, both digitally and physically, through its Brand & Communication Experience Center in Hemer and the Grohe X Motion Trucks. Grohe's global presence and dedication to making better homes a reality for everyone, everywhere, make it a significant player in the water and housing products industry.
