History
A Look Back
Fortune Brands began its journey as a publicly traded company (NYSE: FBHS or “Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc.”) in 2011, as a successful spin-off from Fortune Brands, Inc. Since then, we have grown organically and through acquisitions, and have delivered strong financial performance. We have also proven our resilience and execution excellence. We outperformed and expanded in our categories through the housing market recovery, and executed our strategies through global disruptions, while refining our portfolio for the future.
On December 14, 2022, we completed the separation of our Cabinets business, enabling us to pursue our unique and exciting path for accelerating growth and productivity.
Today, we are a new company: Fortune Brands Innovations, Inc. (NYSE: FBIN). We are focused on driving our brand, innovation and channel leadership, and winning in supercharged categories.
Disciplined Acquirer
We have a proven track record of value-creating acquisitions in high-growth categories. With 12 major acquisitions and nearly $3 billion deployed since 2011, we are accelerating growth through our disciplined acquisition strategy.

Making History
Innovation is in our DNA. Our businesses have been at the forefront of pioneering new technologies since their creation. Master Lock invented the world’s first laminated steel padlock in 1921. Moen invented the world’s first single-handle faucet in 1947, allowing consumers to easily adjust tap water temperature. LARSON produced the first wood core storm door in 1966, and in 1983, Therma-Tru introduced the first fiberglass door, giving the public an energy-efficient and durable door option.
We are proud to continue this tradition of innovation. Learn more about our Water, Outdoors and Security solutions.
