Chicago Faucet

The Chicago Faucet Company, founded on the near-west side of Chicago, Illinois, has been producing faucets and other plumbing fixtures since 1901.〔(History of Chicago Faucets )〕 The company founder, Albert C. Brown, invented the Quaturn Cartridge in 1913 that worked with the flow of water to make it both easy to open and close the spigots and forestalled leak development.
The Great Depression hit the company hard because of a decline in new construction. Despite the depression, the company persevered by participating in the Chicago World's Fair of 1933 and briefly converted to the production of nuts, bolts, screws, and parachute hooks during World War II.〔(How Chicago Faucets survived the Great Depression )〕
In 2002 the Swiss Geberit AG acquired Chicago Faucet. Currently the Chicago Faucet Company has its headquarters in Des Plaines, Illinois, and employs over 500 people in Des Plaines, Milwaukee, Elyria, Ohio, Michigan City, Indiana, and Huntsville, Alabama. Chicago Faucet has sales in the neighborhood of $70 million a year.
