Elkay Manufacturing Company

The Elkay Manufacturing Company began as a vision of Leopold Katz and his son Louis on the North side of Chicago back in 1920. Founded with the goals of manufacturing the highest quality sinks and providing the best service possible, the company began to thrive. As time went by, we set the pace with new products, designs and innovations that continue to lead the industry.

To meet the demands of a changing marketplace, over the years we've expanded from our base business to include the manufacture of water coolers and fountains. We then added a cabinetry division and achieved our goal of being a more complete supplier of kitchen products. Recently, we broadened our scope to address the emerging world market of water filtration products and now offer our customers the benefits of our extensive research.

Throughout our growth and expansion, Elkay has continued to recognize and respect the value and commitment that each employee brings to the company. Our strength is in our people and we reward them for their hard work with respect, job satisfaction, and increased opportunity.

We are now a family of companies that employ over 4,000 people in production and distribution facilities throughout North America and select international markets. As the Elkay family expands nationally and globally, our commitment stays the same: complete customer satisfaction, continuous improvement, and deep employee engagement.
