This Manufacturing Month, we're looking back at one of the most remarkable technologies in our history: the tunnel kilns that helped shape a new era of industry at Kohler.

Installed in the 1920s, these massive kiln systems stretched the length of a semi-truck and reached temperatures of nearly 1,300°C to transform clay into the strong, durable vitreous china we became known for. Products traveled through the kiln on a cable-car system for up to three days, moving through multiple temperature zones designed to achieve different finishes and colors. Decades later, those same kilns would help usher in bold new hues and even fire large-scale sculptures for our Arts/Industry residency program.

Today's kilns can complete the process in just 16-18 hours and utilize 9 times more burners with significantly greater efficiency. But the spirit of manufacturing remains the same.

Here’s to the generations of technology and craftspeople who turned heat, precision and innovation into a legacy that still burns bright today.

Some milestones deserve more than a number.

Fifty years ago, a young high school graduate walked through the doors of our Sheridan, Arkansas, operation and began a journey that would span generations. Through changing products, evolving technologies, and decades of growth, one thing never changed: Janet Crossett's commitment to craftsmanship, teamwork, and doing the job right.

Since 1976, Janet has helped build products that found their way into homes across America. Along the way, she became known for her deep knowledge, unwavering work ethic … and her famous homemade zucchini bread.

And in a feat as remarkable as the milestone itself, Janet achieved perfect attendance throughout her entire career.

In 153 years of Kohler history, only 93 associates have reached the 50-year service milestone. Janet is now one of them.

Thank you, Janet, for five decades of dedication, pride, and craftsmanship. Your impact is forever woven into the story of Kohler. 💙

Today is Global Handwashing Day, but did you know that 2.3 billion people live without the means to safely wash their hands at home?

In response to this staggering statistic, we have developed KOHLER Cleanse. This hands-free faucet empowers people to literally take protecting their health into their own hands.

Our Innovation for Good team has joined forces with Amalooloo to bring our KOHLER Cleanse handwashing faucet into Myloo, Amalooloo's sustainable sanitation suite. Together, we're expanding access to safe sanitation and hygiene across Africa and helping water-stressed communities make every drop count.

That’s the power of Innovation for Good—products designed not just for performance, but for people. Because everyone deserves access to safe sanitation, hygiene, and the dignity that comes with it.

What did the future of the home look like 100 years ago?

At LACMA Los Angeles County Museum of Art's “Home of the Future, 1925–1985: Designing Domestic Utopias” exhibit, visitors can step into a century of imagination, where visionary designers, groundbreaking technologies, and bold ideas transformed the way people thought about everyday living.

We're honored to support this landmark exhibition, which features more than 260 artifacts that trace evolving visions of domestic life, from mechanized kitchens to connected living spaces. Among them are two pieces from the Kohler Archives—the groundbreaking Electric Sink dishwasher of the 1920s and the iconic Environment of the 1970s, a fully enclosed bathtub that promised total sensory immersion. At a time when the modern home was being reimagined, Kohler was already exploring how products with a purpose could turn ambitious ideas into meaningful improvements for people.

That spirit still drives us today. Rooted in a rich heritage of craftsmanship and innovation, we continue to imagine what's next for the home, creating experiences that enhance wellbeing, sustainability, and gracious living.

Because the future isn't just something we envision. It's something we help build.
