The Elkay Manufacturing Company
began as a vision of Leopold Katz and his
son Louis on the north side of Chicago
back in 1920. Founded with the goals
of manufacturing the highest quality
sinks and providing the best service
possible, the company began to thrive.
As time went by, we set the pace with
new products, designs and innovations
that continue to lead the industry.
