Worcester – A History of Innovation

Worcester have a history of innovation, over 50 years ago they were a leading supplier of oil-fired central heating equipment.  We have already spoken about combi boilers, well in 1971, Worcester were one of the first to introduce the combi boiler to the British market.

Worcester – Growth

In 1986 Worcester listed on the British stock market at 1.10 and rose to 13 pounds, in 18 months.  Investors obviously saw growth in the Gas and Oil Boiler Market!  To finish of the 80’s, the company at the time called Worcester Engineering was rebranded to Worcester Heat Systems.  A wise move.  And I forgot to mention in 83, the company’s production plant was levelled due to a extensive fire and within three weeks, the company was back producing boilers!  Phenomenal.

A new production site was purchased and even a training centre was opened in Amersham, the company was on the up and the 90’s were about to elevate the company even further!
