About Sub-Zero Group, Inc.
Sub-Zero Group, Inc. is a privately held American company renowned for its luxury kitchen appliances, including refrigeration, cooking, and dishwashing products. Established on August 20, 1945, by Westye F. Bakke in Madison, Wisconsin, the company has a rich history of innovation and quality craftsmanship.
The Sub-Zero brand is synonymous with high-end refrigeration solutions, offering a range of built-in refrigerators, wine storage units, and undercounter refrigeration options.

The company's commitment to quality is evident in their durable and energy-efficient appliances, crafted to meet the needs of discerning homeowners and culinary enthusiasts.
In 2000, Sub-Zero expanded its product line by acquiring the domestic appliance division of the Wolf Range Corporation, a California-based manufacturer of professional-style cooking appliances. This acquisition led to the introduction of the Wolf brand, which offers a comprehensive suite of cooking appliances including ranges, built-in ovens, cooktops, and ventilation systems.
Wolf appliances are engineered to deliver exceptional performance, precision, and control, catering to professional chefs and home cooks alike.
To further diversify its offerings, Sub-Zero introduced the Cove brand, specializing in high-quality dishwashers. Cove dishwashers are designed to complement Sub-Zero and Wolf products, ensuring a cohesive and efficient kitchen experience.
