The new facility marks their 130th year in business, and was officially opened by New Zealand Prime Minister, John Key, on Friday 30 September.

Speaking at the event, Methven chairman Phil Lough congratulated the company on achieving this significant milestone. “We are incredibly proud to join a prestigious group of companies around the world that have been in business for more than 130 years. We are proud to distribute award-winning products throughout the world that are designed, engineered and manufactured right here in New Zealand,” he says.

In addition, Methven has incorporated an extensive area to showcase their proprietary technology and designs in The Source, a showroom and innovation zone that customers will also be able to visit.  - ArchitectureNow Monday 10 October 2016
