MoreChestnut Products was created in the last decade of the 20th century and quickly became a major supplier of wood finishing materials to the hobby and professional woodturner, as well as other woodworking disciplines. While Terry Smart is a familiar face at shows and demonstrations, the story of how and why Terry created Chestnut Products is not often told....
Prior to founding Chestnut Products, Terry spent eight years with one of the largest coatings companies of its time, gaining significant experience in all aspects of manufacturing, formulation and technical support. Sales and marketing related to leading brands.
After his experience, Terry believed that quality finishing products should be available to amateurs. He left the company with his full support and blessing, and was even able to access his knowledge and experience for many years, something for which he will always be indebted to the original owners.
Chestnut Products was originally based in the southeast of England. It was born as a small business, driving to various retail outlets and fulfilling orders for stock that was transported by van.
The brand became known through exhibitions and demand grew in other parts of the country, which created a significant change, with most orders being shipped by carrier, while Terry maintained a personal connection with more local deliveries.
Now, 25 years later, Chestnut Products occupies an enviable position as a leading supplier to amateur and professional woodworkers in the UK, Europe and the rest of the world.
