Vitrex Tools

Established in 1939 by Gaston Florin, Vitrex initially developed a range of hand tools during the World War 2. The first plastic DIY products to be sold under the Vitrex brand were launched during the 1950’s and they soon became established as a leading brand in the emerging DIY consumer market.

Vitrex was acquired by Q.E.P in 2004 and as part of the leading worldwide manufacturer and supplier of tiling equipment, flooring, tools and accessories, Vitrex is now better placed than ever to fulfil its longstanding aim to design, manufacture and distribute professional quality products at affordable prices.

Today Vitrex is an established and recognised supplier to the very best home centres and distributors in the UK and has been at the forefront of the home development market for more than 70 Years.
