The beauty behind the success of Portway's stove was in their efficiency. The stoves burned so slowly that they extracted the maximum amount of heat from the fuel. The stoves were named 'Tortoise'stoves and proudly produced with the motto 'Slow but Sure' displayed on the front. It was the first heating appliance to offer fuel efficiency as a major selling point making its role in the development of our industry of great significance today. Robert Higgs, the chief executive of the Heating and Ventilating contractors association argues the Portway was the "ounding father of energy efficiency"

In more peaceful times the skills of the workforce enabled them to produce ornate and highly ornamental cast iron fireplaces, firebacks and grates, many of them being specifically designed and cast for the great houses of the English aristocracy.

Flavel was always recognized as being an innovative company and having had a relatively minor presence in the gas fire market in 1965 they introduced the first ever furniture fire with a wood surround - the Debonair.
