Kärcher Steam Cleaner

Kärcher steam cleaners (Dampfreiniger) are premier household and commercial cleaning devices widely popular across Austria and international markets. The brand was founded in 1935 in Germany by inventor Alfred Kärcher, initially focusing on industrial heating technology before pioneering modern pressure washers and steam cleaning appliances.

Today, Alfred Kärcher SE & Co. KG remains an independent, family-owned enterprise headquartered in Winnenden, Germany. Production of its steam cleaning devices takes place across modern manufacturing facilities primarily in Germany, Romania, Italy, and China depending on the model tier and intended commercial or consumer grade.

In Austria, Kärcher operates directly through its subsidiary, Alfred Kärcher GmbH, headquartered in Vienna, distributing cleaning technology, replacement accessories, and service solutions across retail channels and specialized centers.
