Jøtul Wood Stoves

Jøtul is one of the world's oldest producers of stoves, inserts, and fireplaces, building on a proud Norwegian heritage and craftsmanship since 1853. Founded by Oluf Onsum in Christiania (now Oslo), the brand has become a global leader in the hearth industry, known for combining traditional cast-iron manufacturing with modern combustion technology.

The brand's main manufacturing facility remains located in Kråkerøy, Norway, where cast iron is the core material for their durable products. Over its long history, Jøtul has expanded through strategic acquisitions, including the purchase of the French brand Godin. Today, the company maintains a global presence with manufacturing and assembly sites in Norway, France, Poland, and the United States to serve various regional markets efficiently.

Ownership of Jøtul has transitioned from private family roots to professional investment management. Currently, the brand is owned by the global investment firm Investcorp, which acquired Jøtul Group from Ratos AB. This ownership provides the financial backing for continued innovation in clean-burn technology and eco-friendly heating solutions across its international subsidiaries.
