Over a century of reinventing wellbeing in the home
Electrolux was founded on the idea of making vacuum cleaners lighter and easier to use, promoting them around the world as a tool to improve health and hygiene. From founder Axel Wenner-Gren’s innovation to put runners on the Model V vacuum cleaner, to the launch of the world’s first robotic vacuum, this journey continues.
Over a century of reinventing fabric care
The washing machine has been dubbed the greatest invention of the industrial revolution, because of the impact it had on women’s role in society. With contributions including the revolutionizing “floating wing” washing machine in the 1940s, Electrolux has enabled consumers to spend time on the things that really matter, whether it’s education or spending more time with their family.
