Royal® Vacuum Cleaners

The first Royal vacuum cleaners were made by the P.A. Geier Company in 1905. This makes Royal one of the world's oldest vacuum cleaner manufacturing companies. Mr. Geier started producing his metal cleaners by hand in a backyard garage in Cleveland, Ohio. Soon the company grew and moved to a four-story building on 105th Street where it operated two divisions, a cleaner division and a machining division. Besides vacuum cleaners, the company produced mixers, hair dryers and washing machine units.
