About Brita

Brita Hydration Station Logo

Brita is the leading maker of point-of-use water filtration products to improve the quality and taste of tap water.

Brita started in 1966, when West German entrepreneur Heinz Hankammer set out to fulfill his vision of optimizing normal tap water. He began production under a pear tree in the family's garden, affectionately naming the company after his daughter, Brita. More than 45 years later, Brita is now considered a world market leader of home water filtration products.
