Severin small domestic appliances

Severin is a long-standing German brand specializing in small domestic appliances. Founded in 1892 in Sundern, Germany, the company initially started as a modest blacksmith shop before evolving into a major manufacturer of household products. Its portfolio includes a wide array of tea and coffee makers, toasters, kettles, and other essential kitchen tools.

While the brand maintains its headquarters, design centers, and a portion of its production in Sundern, Germany, the vast majority of its manufacturing has shifted to international facilities, particularly in China, to remain competitive in the global market. Despite this shift, the company emphasizes German engineering standards in its product development.

Ownership of Severin remained within the family for over a century until a significant restructuring. Today, the brand is owned by SEVERIN Elektrogeräte GmbH, which is part of the Knauf Group (specifically managed under the investment umbrella of the Knauf family), ensuring it remains a privately held German entity with deep industrial roots.
