Despite considerable changes over time, Lenox has remained constantly synonymous with quality.
The Lenox name comes from the wolves that once roamed the hills of Scotland. On the western shore of Loch Lomond, where the lowland pastures meet the sweeping hills of the highlands, the Earl of Lenox made his home. Also in the area, the wolf pack found shelter and food a plenty. The wolves were known to possess strength, power and the sharpest of teeth. It has been almost 200 years since the last wolf was seen in Scotland, but the legend of the Wolves of Lenox lives on. We have has adopted this image to portray those same characteristics for our products.
Our focus on quality began many years ago and continues to be a unifying force throughout every process in our organization. In 1995 this quality commitment was formally recognized when we achieved ISO 9001 certification. We are pleased to integrate this important phase in quality processing into our greater quality achievement strategy.
We strive to maximize quality in every step of our operation for the long-term benefit of our end users. We will continue to actively participate in the global marketplace, so that no matter where you are, you can depend on Lenox quality.
