Robert Tincknell sets up as a blacksmith and ironmonger, serving the local farming community. The business is still called R. Tincknell & Son today.
Tincknell Fuels is founded, keeping homes, farms and machinery running with kerosene and red and white diesel.
Tincknell Heating follows shortly after: boilers, servicing and oil tanks. Some of the team have been with us for over 50 years.
Seeing the importance of sustainable energy, we launch Tincknell Solar, alongside HVO renewable fuel. MCS and RECC accredited, and a Tesla Powerwall Authorised Partner.
