A Message from Our Founder

25 Years of Passion, Craftsmanship, and Family

Looking back on the past 25 Years, where has the time gone? It seems like yesterday I was faxing Asia and Europe trying to determine where my first import order would be coming from. Starting with humble beginnings out of the family garage, the goal has always been to deliver a superior service and quality products at a fair price. Looking back, the 3:30am starts and long days away from home building lasting relationships with customers and suppliers was worth it. It has been a privilege to have formed lasting relationships with companies and individual customers.

Pushing Boundaries in Design and Technology

Revolutionizing Homes, One Tap at a Time

At LINSOL, innovation is in our DNA. From our early beginnings in tapware design to today’s advanced shower technologies, we’ve always believed in pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. Our commitment to safety and sustainability is exemplified through our lead-free guarantee, ensuring that every product not only elevates your space but protects your health. Each design is the result of rigorous research, customer feedback, and our promise to bring something truly exceptional to the market. With every new product, we aim to set a new standard for beauty, functionality, and safety.

1999

The Humble Beginnings

In a small garage in Coniston, NSW, one woman’s vision began to bloom. Annette (Lina) Solano, with unwavering passion and determination, founded LINSOL Tapware. What started as a dream soon became a reality, driven by the hope to create something beautiful and timeless for homes across Australia.

With a deep understanding and design, Annette began sourcing materials and crafting her first collection. The first fax ever sent in February 1999 marks the beginning of a journey that would touch thousands of lives. From that moment, LINSOL was committed to bringing elegance and functionality to every home, paving the way for a legacy rooted in craftsmanship and innovation.
2003

A Leap Forward

From the comfort of the family home to a new warehouse in North Wollongong, LINSOL took its first bold steps toward expansion. This move wasn’t just about space—it was about embracing opportunity and a future full of possibilities. With collections like the 24ct Gold Swans & Eagles, LINSOL began making a statement: that luxury and artistry could reside in every home.

This era sparked the birth of iconic designs—Dom, Teresa, and Euro—each meticulously crafted to blend functionality with elegance. These creations not only set a new standard in the industry but also laid the foundation for a legacy of innovation that continues to inspire and influence the design landscape today. As LINSOL flourished, it became clear that the journey was just beginning, paving the way for even greater achievements.
2006

A Family Legacy Begins

Family is at the heart of LINSOL. In 2005, Annette’s son, Domenic, joined the business, bringing fresh ideas and energy. The following year, her daughter Teresa came on board, marking a significant milestone in the company’s evolution. Together, they nurtured this growing legacy, continuing the tradition of excellence that Annette had established. These were the years where LINSOL was more than just a business—it was a family’s shared passion, infused into every product they touched.

As new tapware designs emerged—including Damian and Quattro—LINSOL solidified its reputation as a brand that marries tradition with innovation. This era not only showcased the family’s commitment to craftsmanship but also their vision for the future – where every piece was designed to elevate the everyday experiences of their customers.
2009

The First Rebrand

Every great brand must evolve. In 2009, LINSOL took on its first rebrand—a new look that reflected the boldness of its ambition. Their products weren’t just tapware anymore; they were statements of luxury, now approved for the Department of Housing. Heated towel rails and accessories were introduced, ensuring every home could bask in the warmth and elegance that LINSOL promised.

This was the dawn of a new era—a time for reinvention and renewed purpose, as LINSOL began to solidify its position as a leader in the luxury market, committed to creating beautiful, functional spaces for all.
2010

Receiving the ISO 9001 certification and Watermark Licence

In 2010, LINSOL achieved a significant milestone by receiving its ISO 9001 certification and Watermark Licence, marking its standing as a manufacturer with uncompromising standards. This recognition was not merely a badge of honour, it signified LINSOL’s dedication to maintaining rigorous quality management processes that ensured every product met the highest benchmarks for excellence.

With these certifications, LINSOL distinguished itself in the competitive landscape, emphasising that it wasn’t just about manufacturing products – it was about setting global standards that would be recognised and respected worldwide. This commitment to quality not only strengthened customer trust but also reinforced LINSOL’s position as a leader in the industry.
2012

Bringing Italy Home

In 2012, LINSOL brought a piece of Italy home. Introducing Italian-made sink mixer ranges like Giacomo, Elias, and Luca, the company entered a new era of sophistication. Each piece was designed not only for functionality but also to embody the elegance and timeless style that Italian design is renowned for.

During this transformative year, the family continued to grow, with Annette’s daughter Pamela joining the ranks. Her addition strengthening the bonds that made LINSOL more than just a business—it was a legacy built on passion, innovation and shared values. Together, they continued to honour the vision that started in a small garage, now infusing the company with fresh perspectives while staying true to their commitment to quality and excellence.
2013

Setting the Stage for Future Growth

In 2013. these were the years of recognition for LINSOL. The company secured its first major retail partnership with Harvey Norman, a testament to the trust and value the brand had built over the years. This collaboration marked a new chapter in LINSOL’s journey, providing greater visibility and access to its luxury tapware and accessories for consumers across Australia.

Annette’s nomination for the Business Women’s Award was more than a personal achievement—it was a symbol of what LINSOL stood for: resilience, creativity, and innovation. This recognition highlighted not just her individual contributions, but also the collective efforts of the LINSOL team in pushing boundaries and striving for excellence. As the brand gained momentum, it continued to inspire confidence in its customers, setting the stage for future growth.
2016

The New Era

LINSOL stepped into the world of colour, introducing coloured tapware that turned kitchens and bathrooms into canvases of expression. This vibrant addition allowed customers to infuse their unique style into their spaces, showcasing that functionality could co-exist with bold design. Frances, Annette’s youngest daughter, officially joined the family business during this transformative year, further strengthening the Solano family legacy.

The brand’s rebranding in 2016 simplified the logo, signaling a new chapter. LINSOL wasn’t just about tapware anymore—it had grown beyond that, embracing the endless potential of design. Strategic partnerships with esteemed Brazilian and German manufacturers opened new doors, offering the finest black composite sinks and expanding their portfolio beyond imagination. This expansion allowed the brand to enhance its portfolio dramatically, catering to diverse tastes and further establishing LINSOL as a leader in the luxury market.
2020

A Partnership for the Future

In 2020, LINSOL took a significant step forward by becoming the exclusive distributor for Foster Sinks in Australia, further expanding its influence and reach. The partnership was a testament to LINSOL’s continued commitment to delivering excellence, no matter the challenge.

This collaboration allowed LINSOL to offer an even more comprehensive selection of premium products, catering to the evolving tastes and needs of the community.
2024
