Speakman has been a pioneering force in plumbing innovation since 1869, when brothers Allen and Joseph Speakman opened their modest workshop in downtown Wilmington, Delaware. With an unwavering dedication to craftsmanship and a pioneering spirit, the company created the world's first adjustable shower head and has earned over 100 patents for design and innovation throughout its history.

From introducing the iconic Anystream Shower Head in 1927 to partnering with luxury hotels in 1975, Speakman has consistently set industry standards for showering experiences. The company expanded its product portfolio to include emergency shower and eyewash equipment in the 1960s, and continues to innovate with products like the water-saving Speakman Reaction shower head introduced in 2014. Today, Speakman serves both residential and commercial markets with a comprehensive range of kitchen, bathroom, and safety products, maintaining the same commitment to quality and innovation that defined its founding over 150 years ago.
