Delta Faucet Company, a producer of kitchen and bathroom products including faucet fixtures, sinks and accessories, has announced the addition of Newport Brass to its portfolio. 

According to a news release, this addition enables Delta Faucet Company’s entry into the luxury segment while complementing the ongoing growth of its upper premium brand, Brizo. This growth initiative aims to strengthen Delta Faucet Company’s ability to serve the design community with a range of high-end offerings. By bringing these brands together under a unified strategy, the company plans to further its commitment to craftsmanship, innovation and business solutions for designers, trade professionals and distribution partners.

To support the success of the expansion, Barb Fuller has been appointed as vice president of luxury, overseeing both Newport Brass and Brizo. With over two decades of experience in the luxury and premium home spaces, including ten years in kitchen and bath, the announcement said Fuller has worked across product management, merchandising, marketing, and luxury brand strategy. In this role, she will drive the strategic direction of both brands, ensuring they continue to deliver high value.

“With the Newport Brass and Brizo brands part of our portfolio, we are well-positioned to capture growth in the luxury and upper premium segments,” Jill Ehnes, president of Delta Faucet Company, said in a public statement. “Bringing in exceptional talent like Barb further reinforces our commitment to serving these niche segments and providing our customers and partners a unique mix of innovative and exclusive products. I’m excited about the opportunities ahead and the growth potential that these two leading brands provide.”

Fuller, who most recently was a member of the Executive Leadership Team at Arteriors as VP of Marketing, brings deep expertise in design-driven brands.  

On a personal note, Fuller shared, “Returning to kitchen and bath allows me to reconnect with my passion, and I’m thrilled to leverage my experience and industry knowledge to drive meaningful growth and help guide Delta Faucet Company's next chapter in this space.”

This expansion of its brand portfolio represents a significant step for Delta Faucet Company as it strives to enhance its presence within the luxury and design markets. With strong leadership from Fuller, Delta Faucet Company aims to deliver exceptional service to its target audience and create new opportunities to meet the evolving needs of its customers and partners.
