Arabia: Finland

Helsinki, Finland

Arabia was established in 1873 by Swedish porcelain maker Rörstrand porcelain as a subsidary in Finland.  Dishware was their primary product but sometime after the factory started production of electrical insulators.  In 1923, Arabia acquired Teknillinen Posliinitehdas Oy, a factory in Turku where Arabia’s insulator production was later centralized.  Although they probably no longer make insulators, Arabia is still in business today owned by the Fiskars Corp.
