Found onboard:
As a business with over 225 years of heritage, Churchill’s commitment to a sustainable future has been an integral part of our company ethos for generations. Our past continues to shape our future; as we evolve, grow and innovate we’re able to draw on a rich history of expertise to continuously reduce our impact on the planet, support our people and improve our UK made products.
Our once-fired Envisage Collection unifies this visionary thinking, adaptability and innovative spirit.
Born from a pioneering manufacturing process first introduced by Churchill in the 1980s, Envisage reflects our enduring commitment to shaping a more sustainable future. Through bold shape design and thoughtful patterns, the collection is both an exploration of aesthetics and a testament to responsible innovation.
Most tableware, particularly high performance ceramics, is traditionally fired twice. Our once-fired process significantly reduces the energy required to produce each piece, helping to minimise our environmental impact. Over the decades, we’ve continually refined the technique, advancing it to accommodate larger items and the addition of decorative colour, without compromising on quality or performance.
Through investment in our firing process we have also increased the efficiency of our kilns and are running trials of alternative fuel sources for the future.
