History of Fisher & Paykel

When Fisher & Paykel first began manufacturing products in 1930, it did so under license to other companies. In an effort to increase efficiency, the company turned to technology and as a result was the first to commercialize insulated polyurethane foam refrigerators.

In 1960 Fisher & Paykel saw the need to produce short runs of its models using common machinery. This was another breakthrough that opened up export opportunities.

In 1980 Fisher & Paykel introduced the first appliance using Brushless Direct Current Motors. Based on that technology their leading product, the SmartDrive clothes washer, was developed.
