Founded in 1985 and headquartered in Wschowa, Poland, family-run Marmorin manufactures freestanding baths, washbasins, shower trays and kitchen sinks, which are popular in North America.

“The acquisition underlines our ambition to expand our position in this key growth market.”

Jakub Hrab, CEO of Marmorin added: “We have known and appreciated each other for a long time.

“With Schock we have found the right partner to drive our growth in the USA.”

Schock was founded in 1924 and, according to the company, is the inventor of the quartz composite sink.

It has customers in more than 70 countries and recently partnered with Rangemaster in the UK to produce the Schock by Rangemaster collection.

The Marmorin acquisition follows Schock’s recent change in ownership to investment firm Triton and furthers the German sink manufacturer’s geographical expansion.
