About Carl Mertens - a manufacturer with a passion
Carl Mertens was founded in 1919 as a contract sharpening shop for pocket knife blades. Traditional craftsmanship and uncompromising quality standards combined with innovative design characterise the Carl Mertens collections.
After being taken over by a Chinese investor in May 2015, the newly founded Carl Mertens International GmbH has initiated a comprehensive restructuring: The traditional company is developing from a classic tableware brand into a quality manufacturer for individual lifestyle in the areas of preparation, cooking and enjoyment. Decorating and arranging are no longer the focus. Instead, the focus in future will be on products that express an active and individual lifestyle.
Life in the kitchen and around the laid table - both indoors and outdoors at a BBQ - are areas of life where Carl Mertens products can be found. With thoughtful design paired with traditional craftsmanship, professional manufacturing and a high level of user comfort, the brand conveys its decades of know-how in the processing of stainless steel. Carl Mertens products tell their story through manufacturing, material and the unique shape.
