FM Mattsson is Sweden’s oldest tap manufacturer. FM Mattsson was founded back in 1865 by Frost Matts Mattsson, and has become a forerunner for the whole industry. The company initially made parts for traditional Mora clocks, nit combs, small bells, brooches and pastry wheels. Frost Matts Mattsson manufactured his first barrel taps and boiler room taps in 1876.
FM Mattsson largely owes its success over the years to all the skilled and creative employees living in the village of Östnor in the province of Dalarna in central Sweden. The local craft traditions have been passed down over many generations, and the villagers have closely guarded their knowledge about the innermost secrets of brass. Brass is the region’s gold.
FM Mattsson mixers are primarily distinguished by high quality and innovative technology. For example, FM Mattsson was first to introduce ceramic seals, non-freeze garden taps and two world-unique solutions: soft closing single lever mixers and thermostatic mixing valves.
For most people, a mixer is just an attractive interior design feature that supplies water and enhances the interior of a kitchen or bathroom. For us who have been working with mixers for over 100 years, it means so much more. We value aesthetic qualities both on the inside and the outside. Among other things, this means developing technical solutions that help you save water and energy, thereby improving the environment. To us, aesthetic value essentially means always taking the whole picture into account. This is perfectly exemplified by our new mixer range FM Mattsson 9000E. These mixers are as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside.
