Rangemaster – the art of British design and manufacturing D


eveloping relationships with high- quality, reliable suppliers is vital for


retail professionals, especially in the kitchen and bathroom sector, where there is a wealth of products on offer. It’s often wise to look to established British manufacturers, which have a rich history in developing quality products that are built to last and stocked in the UK, such as AGA Rangemaster Group that operates three dedicated manufacturing sites across the Midlands for its iconic brands. Products designed and manufactured here in


the UK are increasing in popularity. A perfect example is the Rangemaster brand, which has almost 200 years of experience and a rich history of producing range cookers and kitchen sinks. All of the brand’s range cookers are designed and built by hand in Leamington Spa, encompassing almost two centuries of manufacturing excellence and experience. The Kitchener – the original Rangemaster – was first manufactured in 1830 on the very same site and remains one of the company’s most popular models today. All new Rangemaster products undergo a series of tests to ensure they perform to the highest standard. Stages include checking cooking temperatures in the oven cavities (by baking small cakes, scones and fruit cake to determine the heat distribution) and thoroughly testing the non-stick coating on the hob and grill to withstand the rigours of cooking and cleaning.


In a competitive market, aesthetics can’t be


ignored, so Rangemaster utilises years of manufacturing experience and design expertise to offer the largest range of colours, styles and product families. With one of the most comprehensive portfolios in the UK, it’s no surprise that Rangemaster is in more homes than any other range cooker brand. When it comes to reliable suppliers of kitchen


sinks, look no further than the Long Eaton-based Rangemaster Sinks & Taps division and its sister company, Leisure Sinks, which utilise 90 years of experience manufacturing stainless steel models. Not only does Rangemaster offer one of the most extensive ranges on the market, all of its models are stocked in the UK. As a British appliance and sink manufacturer,


Rangemaster has a significant advantage over others in the KBB industry. The ‘Made in Britain’ message is a major benefit for retailers and distributors, allowing them to build strong


relationships with reliable British suppliers. And provide high-quality products without the added expense and carbon footprint created by overseas shipping – which are all widely welcomed in today’s retail environment.
