About Rutland Products
Rutland Products has been a cornerstone of fireplace and chimney care for well over a century. Founded in 1883, Rutland is a leading manufacturer of products for fireplace, chimney, and stove maintenance, having grown from a small family-owned business in Rutland, Vermont into an industry-leading manufacturer. Few brands can claim such a long and storied history of helping homeowners and tradespeople keep their hearths burning safely and efficiently.
A Legacy Built on Trust
For more than 130 years, Rutland Products — which started as Rutland Fire Clay Company — has been a leading manufacturer of cleaning and maintenance products for fireplaces, wood stoves, and chimneys. That heritage translates into deep product expertise: every formula and tool Rutland brings to market is informed by generations of real-world feedback from both everyday homeowners and seasoned chimney service professionals.
In 2024, the Duravent Group and Rutland built a strategic partnership, combining over 260 years of excellence and innovation to broaden the range of chimney and venting solutions available to customers. This collaboration reflects Rutland's continued commitment to growth without sacrificing the quality standards that have defined the brand since the 19th century.
