About Us

At Dyson we believe everything could be better.

We’re growing fast. And our ambition is huge. But it’s not simply about more people and more profit. Dyson is all about pioneering ideas and new technologies. It’s about inventing the future. Our philosophy remains the same as it was 27 years ago when James Dyson invented the first cyclonic vacuum cleaner. We remain family owned.

At Dyson we constantly strive to find more pioneering ways to solve everyday problems.
