We (Andy and Fiona Triplow) set up the Old Radiator Company business in Kent in 2000 following an extensive hunt in salvage yards for items for the refurbishment of our Victorian house which needed original features added back.
We toured around many yards to source suitable original cast iron radiators but we were disappointed as these salvage yards were only able to supply the size/styles they have in stock and these were only offered in a lacquered finish.
We realised we were not alone in wanting these wonderful original features to fit into modern central heating system but not wanting to compromise on heat output, style or colour and so the Old Radiator Company was born.Our investment over the years purchasing original radiators leads us to believe we are the largest stockist of original radiators in the country.

Ornate radiators generally come from France but for example the Beeston radiator is British and dates back to 1896. Please see below some of the styles of our ornate and unusual radiators. All of our radiators are original and these radiators are particulary rare. We have an ever changing stock so please check with one of our sales team and based on your requirements we can advise what sizes and styles we have available.
