Kambrook - Title - Kambrook   Kambrook - A Great Australian Success Story

Kambrook was founded in 1972 by Frank Bannigan, an Australian inventor with an obsession for electrical appliances and a mission to bring the price of quality products within everyone’s reach. Frank converted his home garage into a workshop and named the company after the street he lived in.

Kambrook set out to provide customers with practical products that would enhance every day life. This philosophy quickly led to the invention of Kambrook’s first major product - the 4 way power board, which Frank developed out of pure frustration - he did not have enough power points to test his products. It was a simple, low cost and effective solution that became a worldwide hit. The power board was quickly followed by another invention - the plug-in electric timer, a device originally designed to test the life of every Kambrook appliance, without physically having to switch it on and off.

By the late 70's Frank's inventive mind turned to a revolutionary new idea: the plastic kettle. With better heat insulation than metal, the new kettle was cheaper and much safer. It proved another major Australian success story with sales of over 250,000 kettles in the first year.

Kambrook quickly became a household name in Australia, when it took on the sponsorship of one of Australia's all time favourite TV shows 'Young Talent Time' with the slogan, 'It took Kambrook to think of it'.

Today, every Kambrook product still lives up to Frank’s original philosophy: affordable quality appliances with far more features than you would expect at the price.

And we back it up with a warranty.
