No, Blanco is not a Canadian company, it is a German company headquartered in Oberderdingen, Germany, though it has a significant presence in Canada. BLANCO was founded in 1925 in Berlin by Heinrich Blanc as Blanc + Co, originally making copper water heaters, and later moved to Oberderdingen in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Today, BLANCO Group is a privately owned family company owned by the Blanc family, and is the world's largest manufacturer of kitchen sinks, famous for inventing Silgranit granite composite sinks. BLANCO has manufacturing plants in Germany, Canada, and other countries. BLANCO Canada has a plant in Toronto, Ontario, where it manufactures some stainless steel sinks for the North American market, and BLANCO America is headquartered in Lumberton, New Jersey, USA, serving North America. So while BLANCO has Canadian manufacturing and a Canadian subsidiary, it is not a Canadian company, it is German. There is also a Canadian company called Kindred, which is Franke Kindred Canada, that makes sinks in Midland, Ontario, which is Canadian. But BLANCO itself is German, not Canadian, though it makes some products in Canada and sells extensively at Home Depot Canada, Lowe's Canada, and other Canadian retailers. So BLANCO is German-owned with Canadian operations, not a Canadian company.
