So, Who Are Kilncare?

Founded by Kiln engineer, Brian Sherwin in 1982 by initially servicing and repairing kilns, it soon grew into manufacuting kilns. Brian was joined by his entreprenerial son, Lee in 1985 and more recently Brian's Grandson, Jake in 2015. So 3 generations all in the one place!

"Love my kilncare. A faithful, loyal, treasured companion. I can't remember a time wihtout it. Equally the time, help, support and kindness from Klincare has been invaluable. The team at kilncare are quite literally a ray of sunshine!"
Hannah Gibson Glass

"Here at Fired Glass we run workshops 4 days a week and run out kilns every day... Kilncare service is legendary. Have recomended Kilncare over and over to students looking to start their own studio and will continue to do so."
Jill Tisbury, Firedglass UK

About the Kilns

Kilncare manufacture and stock both Ceramic and Glass kilns as well as many other specialist pottery equipment such as spray booths, dry cabinets and slip pumps.

We have a full list of the specifications, sizes, firing temperatures and AMPs etc on the specific Kilns pages which are highlighted here. 

T
he IKON range all utilise the super insualiton "micropore".  Making the kilns even more energy efficient starting at just 18 KW per stoneware firing for the smallest kiln. The Artizan and Epic ranges can be upgraded (at an additonal cost) making them approximately 20 % or more efficient than they already are!! (Just be aware this insulation which is amazing at heat retention, of course will slow the cooling of the kiln, which may be a consideration for you).

The glass kilns can start at only 4, 5 and 6 KW per firing! These numbers not only save in your electricity bill, but will prolong the life of your kiln.

All IKON kilns come with castors as standard, and the glass kilns have added options for the stands and castors.

Hear why Kilncare is so loved.

I bought an Ikon V46 in spring 21 and it's outstanding. It's never failed me, it's a super solid quality kiln. The firings are consistent and reliable. It also looks great and as an absolute bonus for me it's made in Stoke.

I’ve had my hobby Fuser 3 with stand and KCR2 controller for around 10 years. Still working as well now as the day it arrived. It is easy to use and a good size, enough to allow multiple small pieces or a large one or two at a time. I started as a complete novice and still love learning and my kiln has helped make programming easy. It comes with preprogrammed schedules and these are a great staring point but if you want to tweak or change completely it is very simple to do. I really love my kiln and aspire to have another. Customer service is great to with Kilncare, I’ve never had problems with the kiln but have contacted for advice when trying new things out and the response was friendly, quick and thorough.
