Crafted by hand in Mora since 1927 In the heart o
f Dalarna in central Sweden is one of the world’s most modern sanitary fittings factories. Here we have been manufacturing taps since 1927. A lot has changed over the years, but each product is still crafted by hand with the utmost care in Mora. Our history started with Frost Matts Mattsson, a young entrepreneur. He founded FM Mattsson in 1865 in the village of Östnor near Mora. By the time Frost Matts Mattsson died in 1914, his sons Anders and Karl had take over the company’s management. In 1926, a year-long strike brought the factory to a standstill. This caused Frost Karl and his wife Anna Maria to set up a new factory called Mora Armatur just across the road. Frost Karl took twelve of the workers with him to the new factory, and since 1927 Mora Armatur has been established as a top quality brand in its industry. Today, almost 90 years later, Mora Armatur is one of Europe’s largest and most modern sanitary fitting producers. Almost 450,000 taps leave the factory every year, destined for kitchens and bathrooms worldwide. 2
