Oak Stoves

In 2023, Oak Stoves commissioned Fireplace Ceramics Ltd to create two bespoke 3-piece refractory log sets for their premium range of pistol burner gas fires. The objective was to deliver a more realistic log set with a higher quality finish, which was to be manufactured within the UK.

Oak Stoves, known for their commitment to quality and innovation, approached Fireplace Ceramics Ltd, an established UK based manufacturer and specialist in refractory ceramics. The company’s reputation for superior craftsmanship and its expertise in ceramic manufacturing made them an ideal partner for Oak Stoves in their pursuit of creating a more premium log set.

The development of the new log sets took a month, reflecting the meticulous attention to detail and the high standards set by both companies. The process involved rigorous testing and refinement to ensure the highest quality and realism. The result was a high-quality lifelike product that even glows when it heats up, creating an authentic fireplace experience.

“Our partnership with Fireplace Ceramics in crafting a bespoke refractory log set for our gas stoves has been a resounding success. The meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail exhibited by Fireplace Ceramics have produced a refined and distinctive addition to our product line. We are highly satisfied with the end result and the seamless collaboration throughout the process. This unique refractory log set not only enhances the functionality of our gas stoves but also adds a touch of sophistication to our designs.” Richard Heatherill, Managing Director.

The success of this collaboration underscores the value of partnerships and the importance of local manufacturing in delivering high-quality and bespoke products. It serves as an inspiration for other companies in the UK’s heating industry to continuously innovate and collaborate to deliver exceptional products to their customers.

This case study also demonstrates how a dedicated and focused approach by Fireplace Ceramics Ltd led to the creation of a product that significantly enhanced the value proposition of Oak Stoves’ gas stoves, leading to increased customer satisfaction and sales.
