HQ Function

Served as the central hub for corporate strategy, administration, product development, sales, and marketing for Elkay's diverse range of products before the Zurn merger.

Notable Features:

The Downers Grove facility was a modern office space designed to foster collaboration and innovation among employees. It likely featured showrooms displaying Elkay's extensive product lines.

Work Culture:

Elkay historically fostered a work culture rooted in its family-owned origins, emphasizing quality, integrity, customer satisfaction, and community involvement. This culture valued American manufacturing and employee well-being.

HQ Significance:

This headquarters was significant as the command center for a leading American manufacturer in the plumbing fixture industry, overseeing decades of growth, innovation (like the ezH2O bottle filler), and market leadership.

Values Reflected in HQ: The headquarters aimed to reflect Elkay's core values: quality craftsmanship, innovation in water delivery solutions, customer-centricity, and a commitment to American manufacturing.

Location:

While Elkay Manufacturing historically had a strong North American focus with some international sales and sourcing, its global reach has been significantly expanded as part of Zurn Elkay Water Solutions. Zurn Elkay operates globally with manufacturing, sales, and distribution networks across North America, Europe, Asia (including China and the Philippines), and the Middle East (UAE). Elkay-branded products are now distributed through this enhanced global network, serving a worldwide customer base.
