Factory Tours
Welcome in! At Heath, we manufacture all of our products in two small Bay Area factories. In our original 1959 building in Sausalito and our San Francisco tile facility, work is centered around Edith and Brian Heath's founding values: design integrity, material resourcefulness, and human-scale production. The result is beautiful, useful objects that last. Come visit us and see how we keep the wheels spinning!
Important Update for Tours
Tours are now closed for the remainder of 2024, however, we'll be back soon in January 2025! Stay tuned for new dates to be posted—we can't wait to see you soon.
