Electrolux household appliances

Electrolux is a world-leading Swedish home appliance manufacturer that has been a household name for over a century. Founded in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1919 through the merger of Lux AB and Svenska Elektron AB, the brand quickly became synonymous with innovation in vacuum cleaners and refrigeration technology. Today, Electrolux produces a vast range of products including washing machines, dishwashers, ovens, and refrigerators.

While the company is headquartered in Stockholm, its manufacturing footprint is truly global to serve various regional markets. Production facilities are located across Europe, North America, South America, and Asia. Major manufacturing hubs include Sweden, Italy, Poland, the United States, Brazil, and China. This distributed manufacturing strategy allows the brand to adapt products to local electrical standards and consumer preferences while maintaining a competitive global supply chain.

Electrolux remains its own ultimate owner as AB Electrolux, a publicly traded company on the Nasdaq Stockholm. It is one of the pillars of Swedish industry and operates under several brands including AEG, Westinghouse, and Frigidaire. The company continues to lead in sustainability and smart home integration, maintaining its position as one of the largest appliance manufacturers in the world.
