Charnwood

Did you know Charnwood is a privately owned, family-controlled British company that has been since 1972? It is one of the oldest British manufacturers of wood-burning and multi-fuel stoves. Charnwood is run by second and third generations of the same family, who are dedicated to providing products with enduring design and the highest quality.

Charnwood started with only 3 employees in a factory of around 1500 sq ft and is now boosting to over 150 employees in a factory of around 50,000 sq ft.

Charnwood has always been keen to provide employment in their local area on the Isle of Wright. Many members of their staff have been with them for over 25 years. This loyalty and dedication to their products and staff has helped maintain the company’s pride in its products.

Charnwood as a company prides itself in being committed to protecting the environment. They operate on the policy of caring for the environment in all aspects of their business, starting from the raw materials they use, their final products packaging, the transportation of their products and even down to the way the deal with the disposal of their waste products.

You can definitely see their dedication to helping the environment in the efficiencies of their products. They attempt to achieve high stove efficiency, so we use less of the earth’s natural resources to heat our homes. Their stove is also designed and uses the best of British products where possible. A Charnwood stove is designed and made to give you many years of service. They have even made available spares on any stove component part, which may need replacing in its lifetime. And then once your stove has reached the end of its lifespan, all the materials and components are fully recyclable through our local municipal recycling facilities. 

Charnwood offers an extensive range of woodburning and multi-fuel stoves to suit virtually every home’s heating requirement and your own personal tastes. Charnwood offers both contemporary and traditional styles that incorporate the very latest in clean burn technology. All their products meet the Eco-design Ready requirements, and almost all are Defra exempt. This allows the wood to be burnt safely and clearly in smoke-controlled areas.
