About us Armitage Shanks... A British institution with roots back to the mid nineteenth century, it is now one of the largest manufacturers of sanitaryware in the U.K. The name Armitage Shanks has long been synonymous with quality British Bathrooms. The company’s roots can be traced back to 1850 when the first sanitaryware was manufactured. This was at a time when few properties had mains water pumped to them, there was no water borne sanitation system and hot water was a luxury enjoyed by the very rich. The company that became Armitage Shanks was founded in 1817 by Thomas Bond in Armitage, Staffordshire. The Armitage "sanitary pottery manufacture" became a successful UK toilet manucturer. In 1969 Armitage merged with Shanks Holdings Limited, a competing "sanitary engineering company" established at Barrhead near Glasgow, Scotland in 1878, producing the famous brand name Armitage Shanks. In February 1999 Armitage Shanks became part of the American Standard group of companies. Today’s bathroom has moved from being purely functional to a room in which you can express yourself…a dynamic hub in the morning for the family to invigorate themselves in for the day ahead…a sanctuary in the evening for relaxation and re charging the batteries! In the Armitage range you will find all you need to create your perfect bathroom and build a room that suits your budget and lifestyle. visit www.armitage-shanks.co.uk/index.html for further details. |
