100+ Years of Improving Life at Home
Discover the century-long journey of Whirlpool Corporation, the world's leading appliance company, built on integrity, innovation, and purpose. It all started in 1911 in Benton Harbor, Michigan, with a simple goal: electrify the wringer washer and improve daily life. From those humble beginnings, we grew into a global enterprise, pioneering everything from the first electric washing machines to creating the 'space kitchen' for NASA's Gemini and Apollo missions!
Today, we stand as the only remaining U.S.-based major kitchen and laundry appliance company. We manufacture more home appliances in the U.S. than anyone else, all united by one shared purpose: improving life at home.

Around the world today, 1.8 billion people live in substandard housing, and the need for decent, affordable housing is only growing worldwide. Helping find solutions to these problems guides our approach to corporate social responsibility across the globe at Whirlpool Corporation. Through our House+Home Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategy, we enable comfortable, nurturing places to live and support resilient, thriving and sustainable communities through education programs.
