History of Kemper (MasterBrand)

The Kemper brand began in 1926 by the Kemper Bros in Richmond, Indiana and is America's oldest cabinet maker. Two years later, the first freestanding cabinets were produced.

In 1965, Kemper merged with the Tappan Company and experienced a number of different ownerships over the next 30 years. In 1998, MasterBrand was formed to include the Kemper brand and other cabinet makers Schrock and Diamond. MasterBrand Cabinets still operates a 280,000 square ft. plant in Richmond, IN. The parent company of MasterBrand is Fortune Brands.

Warranties

Since 2001, all Kemper kitchen cabinets come with a limited lifetime warranty which means that for as long as the original consumer owns the home in which the cabinets are installed, those cabinets are guaranteed to be "free of defects in material and workmanship." The current warranty represents a significant improvement over the 1-year warranty that came with all products until 1996. Between 1996 and 2001, product warranties changed several times and were different for different cabinet lines. Warranty questions about cabinets purchased during that time are best directed to the company.
