Compañía Roca Radiadores, S.A., was set up in 1917 by the Roca brothers to initially manufacture cast iron radiators. The company quickly came to dominate the market and this coupled with its desire to expand, was the incentive to increase the range and research new products.

1925 saw the introduction of the new cast iron bathtubs; 1936 was the year porcelain sanitary ware was launched; 1954 saw the introduction of tapware; and in 1980, the ceramic tiles were brought out. Roca's invasion of the bathroom world was unstoppable.

Now, almost a century down the line, Roca is the market leader almost everywhere its products are sold.
The company has factories and subsidiaries across the globe. It is one of the most ambitious business projects worldwide.

As one of the leading international manufacturers of sanitary products, Hansgrohe stands for innovation, design and showering pleasure at the highest level.

Hans Grohe founded Hansgrohe in Schiltach in 1901. Maybe it is because of the accuracy, craftsmanship and meticulous working style which is characteristic of the Black Forest, or because of its passion for water the elixir of life - that Hansgrohe developed into an internationally renowned company.

Today, Hansgrohe is a global company with 10 manufacturing locations on three continents as well as sales and distribution companies and consultancies.
Countless technological innovations and more than 150 design awards have helped make the Hansgrohe Group a pioneering force within the industry.
