About Napoleon Napoleon got its start in 1976 as a steel fabrication business launched by Wolfgang Schroeter in Barrie, Ontario, Canada. His original stove was a solid cast iron two-door design that was produced in a 100 sq. ft. manufacturing facility. By 1981 the name "Napoleon" was born along with the first single glass door with Pyroceram high temperature ceramic glass in the industry. This glass door was the first of many milestones for the company and the demand for Napoleon"s wood stoves grew over the next few years beyond Ontario"s borders to the rest of Canada and into the United States. Over the years Napoleon has led the way with innovative engineering and design. They are now North America’s largest privately owned manufacturer of quality wood and gas fireplaces, gourmet gas and charcoal grills, outdoor living products, and heating and cooling products. Napolean is committed to producing high quality products with honest, reliable service. This approach has proven to be a successful framework to ensuring the continued rapid growth of the company.
