Brabantia: From Metal Goods to Household Innovations
Founded in 1919 in the Dutch village of Aalst under the name Van Elderen & Co, Brabantia began as a metal goods company producing items like milk sieves, buckets, and cigar tins. The company expanded with factories in Valkenswaard, Overpelt, and Roden, and established sales organizations in Belgium, France, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland. In 1941, the name changed to "Brabantia," after the Latin word for Brabant, and the company continued to broaden its range with innovative household products.

Today, Brabantia items from the 1960s and 1970s are still valued by collectors and vintage enthusiasts. This cleaning box can be both functional and serve as a stylish decoration in any interior.
