Wood Boiler Supplies Ltd

What Wood Boiler Supplies Ltd does

Wood Boiler Supplies Ltd is a UK-based specialist trade distributor of biomass boilers, thermal stores, hydraulic components, and ancillary wood-fuelled heating equipment, headquartered in Turriff (Fyvie), Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Founded in 2013 and privately held, the company operates on a trade-account model under the slogan 'set up by installers for installers', serving a nationwide UK network of installer partners rather than selling directly to end consumers (end-customer enquiries are routed to a published map of partner biomass engineers). Its core boiler catalogue aggregates four European manufacturers — Biotech (Austrian, 9-101kW pellet boilers with proprietary DCC dual combustion control), SOLARFOCUS (Austrian, domestic to commercial pellet/log/chip boilers from 10kW PelletElegance to 150-300kW Maximus, plus solar thermal and air source heat pumps managed by EcoManager Touch Control), Strebel Turbotec (Austrian, 20-100kW wood-gasifying log boilers with lambda control), and EcoTec (Swedish, BioLine pellet burners and Mini Q boiler systems) — complemented by TML buffer tanks (300-5000L), LOVATO hydraulic and district-heating solutions, IVT LATENTO thermal stores, plus supporting SKUs from LK, Watts, SWEP, KENT, Schellinger, Silotec, and QStoves.

The company does not manufacture its own technology; it is a multi-vendor distribution and technical-support platform. Its product technology stack consists entirely of third-party hardware and control systems, with the company's own value-add concentrated in pre-sales technical consultation, system design assistance, installation training (from half-day introductions to full commissioning courses delivered at its Aberdeenshire facility or on customer sites), phone and on-site technical support, an illustrated parts catalogue and technical manual library, and a YouTube channel producing maintenance tutorials. The revenue model is hardware sales to trade accounts, with pricing not publicly disclosed and accounts opened on application via email or phone.

Strategically, the firm is a member of Confor and the Wood Heat Association, supporting its positioning as an industry-aligned specialist distributor rather than a generalist wholesaler. Distribution is UK-domestic only with no evidence of international expansion, capital-raise activity, or M&A.
