Essential Pottery Machinery
Our pottery machinery has been curated to cover the significant stages of the clay preparation process, helping potters streamline workflows and maintain consistent, high-quality results.
Clay Extruders
Extruders provide a simple, efficient way to create consistent coils, handles, tiles, and hollow forms, and are ideal for handbuilding and production work. Produce repeatable shapes with minimal effort.
Jar Mills
Jar mills are essential machines for grinding and blending materials such as glazes, slips, and engobes. Their controlled rotational action helps to mix raw materials into smooth, consistent batches.
Clay and Glaze Mixers
Offering fast, even blending of liquid and semi-liquid materials, these machines prevent settling and ensure uniform consistency. They are ideal for studios preparing large volumes of slip or glaze, as well as for those who require precision.
Potters Wheels
Potters' wheels are a core piece of pottery machinery. Our range offers smooth, controlled throwing performance suitable for every user - from beginners to production potters. With stable platforms and precise control, they support the creation of both delicate and heavy forms.
Pugmills
Pugmills help homogenise clay, remove air pockets, and efficiently recycle and reclaim material. These machines save time, reduce waste and produce smooth, workable clay suitable for handbuilding or wheel throwing.
Reversible Lathes
These machines support turning, trimming and refining thrown work. With bidirectional control, potters can enjoy greater flexibility and reliable performance for both small decorative pieces and larger functional ware.
Sedimentation Tanks
Essential for slip preparation and waste management, sedimentation tanks are ideal for separating solids from wastewater. They help reclaim materials while ensuring responsible, environmentally conscious disposal.
Slabrollers
Slabrollers provide fast, accurate rolling of clay slabs in a variety of thicknesses. Perfect for tile makers, handbuilders, and educational facilities, these machines produce consistent sheets ready for forming, moulding, or decorating.
Machinery for the Preparation of Slip and Glaze
For creatives mixing their own materials, we offer reliable equipment for efficient glazing, casting, and decorating. From sieving to mixing, these machines ensure high-quality results consistently.
Essential Pottery Equipment
Alongside core machinery, we offer a full range of equipment to support day-to-day studio operations and creation.
Spray Equipment
Our spray guns, booths, and accessories help potters apply even layers of glaze, engobe, or slip, producing smooth surfaces and professional finishes every time.
Storage and Furniture
A range of strong, durable studio furniture like shelving, trolleys and worktables to support safe, organised storage of tools, clay and work-in-progress.
Wheel Accessories
A selection of add-ons such as splash pans, seats and tool rests to help potters personalise their wheel set-up for maximum comfort and efficiency.
Wheelbats
Wheelbats provide a quick-release throwing surface, making it easier to lift finished pots without distorting the project. This equipment is ideal for busy or educational environments.
