Duravit AG, founded in 1817 and headquartered in Hornberg, Germany, is primarily a manufacturer of porcelain bathroom fittings.

Founded as a small earthenware factory by Georg Friedrich Horn in 1817 in the Black Forest, Duravit did not begin to produce sanitary fixtures until the early 20th century such as sinks, bidets, and toilets.

The 1980s and 1990s were also characterized by various corporate acquisitions, including "Ceramique de Bischwiller in 1991, "MISR TECH" in 1999, and a partial stake in Laufen.

[1] Duravit's expansion continued in the first decade of the 21st Century with the establishment of subsidiaries in Turkey, India and China.

The starting signal for Duravit Sanitaryware Technology Co. Ltd, a new engineering and assembly plant in Shanghai, fell in 2011.
