About Us
There is nothing quite the same as heating your home with a real Charnwood fire.

Not only does the ritual of loading a stove give a greater sense of achievement and satisfaction, it provides a warmth that no other energy source can equal. It all started in 1972, when Alfred Wells and
two of his sons, started a small engineering business in Niton on the Isle of Wight. Over the last forty
years we have grown from our original small factory of around 1500 sq. ft to our current site of
over 50,000sq. ft.
Commitment to our staff is vital as is the commitment to invest in the latest technology to ensure the highest quality.



Over the years we have installed our own Vitreous Enamelling Plant, CNC controlled Press Brakes, Robotic Welders and a state-of-the-art Laser Profiler, all of which allow pinpoint accuracy resulting in superior quality.
Keeping the manufacture of as many parts as possible in-house enables us to maintain full production control and to provide our customers with long-lasting products that lead the field technically in both operation and function.
