OUR HISTORY
Creating amazing water experiences since 1886
Creating amazing water experiences is what we do every day at Methven, and have done since 1886. Today, Methven is world renowned for beautifully designed, award winning showers, taps and valves.
Over the years we have learned how to harness the power of water to cleanse, calm, refresh and invigorate. And it’s this expertise - combined with our passion for design and innovation - that fuels our ongoing mission to create amazing water experiences, just for you.
OUR CAUSE
The unrelenting pursuit of amazing water experiences that don’t cost the earth.
OUR VISION
