Stone & Tile Care

About Lithofin

Company History
In 1953 Glaubrecht Stingel started producing a newly developed cleaning product. The success of this product led to the introduction of further innovations, and the company was soon able to offer a product range for diverse applications. In 1979 Heinz-Peter Stingel, who had become the company's new director, focused all activities on the ceramic tile and natural stone market. The products were bundled under a new brand: Lithofin. Based on the two pillars of quality and service, Lithofin soon outgrew the German borders: first into neighbouring Europe, then overseas. Today, Lithofin is one of the leading suppliers of products for cleaning, protecting and maintaining ceramics, natural and artificial stone.

The Philosophy
Lithofin is synonymous with special products that represent the highest technical standard. The standard applies to the product quality on the one hand, and to the service quality on the other. The satisfied customer is at the heart of all our activities. Partnership and responsiveness to customer wishes are therefore our most important guideline. Through constant investments and training, we increase our capabilities and thereby remain fit for the future. Together with our distribution partners in more than 15 countries, we work every day to meet these challenges. The fact that our quality management was ISO 9001 certified as early as 1996, substantiates our claims. As a chemical factory, we are well aware of our responsibility for the health of our employees, our customers and our environment. We therefore place great value on safety aspects that are followed closely from product development to production to application advice.

The LITHOFIN Product Range
Over the past 50 years the Lithofin Range developed into a comprehensive programme of products for professionals and home owners that leaves nothing to be desired. Originating from a few products for tile-fixers and stone masons number and fields of application of our products has grown into an extensive range presented in this catalogue.

Quality
High quality is at the heart of what Lithofin does. Development, manufacturing, logistics and service are all subject to a quality management programme designed to continuously improve processes and set new standards in the market. The product quality is a result of ongoing laboratory work and practical testing based on the experience of experts. The Lithofin programme sets the standard in product quality and it meets the professionals’ expectation of effectiveness as well as the end consumers need for ease of use.

Environmental Protection
Look for this symbol on the packaging for information on environmental properties of the individual products. All products are manufactured using the safest raw materials possible, and they are registered under the strict regulations of the German Office of Environmental Protection. The packaging is made of environmentally friendly polyethylene (PE) or tinplate and can be recycled.
