Today it is a World Leader in the manufacture of ceramic decanters, kitchenware, promotional, industrial, hotelware and household markets. Well known in households across the UK, Wade first produced porcelain goods such as... creel steps and shuttle eyes to the fast expanding textile industry in the North West and Lancashire. Following its success the company went on to produce gaslights and gas fire burners and later still, insulators for early electrical companies before moving into the production of teapots and tiles. It was only a great deal later, after the First and Second World Wars, that Wade began to produce items for giftware, collectable and promotions markets.
