STIEBEL ELTRON from 1924 to the present
The company still adheres to the fundamental principle of its founder, Dr. Theodor Stiebel, to produce innovative products of the highest quality. The success story of STIEBEL ELTRON began in 1924 with the invention of the first spiral immersion water heater, whose production started in a backyard workshop in Berlin. During the Second World War, this was completely destroyed. Therefore, in 1944, Dr. Theodor Stiebel relocated the company to Holzminden, Lower Saxony, Germany. Our headquarters are still located here.
