Rowenta Compact Express Style Hair Dryer

Owner:SEB S.A. (France)
OriginGermany
Manufactured:China

Rowenta Compact Express Style is an ultra-light, compact hair dryer engineered for efficient and fast blow-drying. The packaging emphasizes the brand's heritage with the note 'A brand born in Germany', reflecting its origins in precision-engineered personal care and domestic appliances.

Rowenta was originally established in Germany in 1909 by Robert Ferdinand August Weintraud under the company Weintraud & Co. GmbH. Over decades, the brand gained a strong international reputation for small household and personal care electronics, including irons, vacuums, and hair care tools.

In 1988, Rowenta was acquired by Groupe SEB, a French multinational conglomerate and global leader in small domestic equipment (which also owns Tefal, Krups, Moulinex, and WMF). Although conceptualized under Rowenta's historical German engineering standards, mass production of small personal care appliances like this hair dryer is primarily carried out in China. In Bulgaria, Rowenta products are officially distributed via Groupe SEB Bulgaria EOOD.
