The Kelray Story

The Kelray range was created by New Zealanders Kelvin Davis and Ray Maddix. Dissatisfied with the quality and resilience of outdoor heaters in a coastal setting, the pair set out with a goal – create the world’s most durable outdoor heater. The Kelray Heater was born.

Though Kelvin and Ray have since retired, Kelray has continued, building a strong global reputation for a product which can withstand even the harshest outdoor conditions. 

Today, Kelray is headquartered in New Zealand, with a dedicated Canadian division supplying North America, ensuring our heaters are available to customers across both hemispheres.
