Cooking up Yankee Ingenuity with World First Innovation in ClintonIn a state known traditionally for brass and insurance, and more recently for casinos and highway congestion, there lies in Clinton a small manufacturer who, for the past 73 years, has been cooking up a leadership position in the marine industry, and is poised to stir the pot in the home residential market too. Kenyon International, Inc. founded in 1931 by Ted Kenyon, began as a small manufacturer of precision instruments for aviation and navigation. As business developed in the marine marketplace, the product line expanded to include wind and speed instruments, rigging spars and hardware, refrigeration systems, and finally marine stoves. What started innocently as a small traditional alcohol stove paved the way for the development of many new and innovative marine-cooking stoves using non-alcohol fuel sources as butane and propane, and finally the breakthrough development of ceramic electric cook tops for the high seas!With burners spring loaded against the glass, powered by 120 Volts from the ships power plant, these little Kenyon marine cook tops changed the sea galley dramatically. Challenged by conditions that would ordinarily dampen the capabilities of the available “domestic-use†touch control cook tops, Kenyon engineers developed a touch control cook top that was unaffected by water on or under the glass. Operating on the passage of a beam of infrared light to activate the touch control sensors, the Lite-Touch series of touch control ceramic electric cook tops emerged to become “the†cook top for the yacht galley. Furthermore, this year's ADEX award entry represents the first 2-burner cook top developed utilizing Kenyon's exclusive infrared Lite-Touch control technology!Over the years, these technological innovations, coupled with Kenyon clean design styling, simple-to-operate controls, and user-safety features, have led the way for the entry of the Kenyon Custom products into the highly competitive home appliance market. While not exactly a house-hold word shore-side yet, these newcomers have developed a loyal and growing following that describes the product line as new, unique, and well-built, which by any measure are fine introductions. And increasingly, architects designing assisted living facilities, extended stay hotels, and military barracks, have come to appreciate not only the durability of these compact cookers, but have also decreed that sustainable design through higher construction and material standards can now be achieved by specifying Kenyon Custom compact 2-burner cook tops!Eager to under promise and over deliver, Kenyon's Connecticut Yankees are proudly manufacturing in Clinton and exporting around the world for home, hospitality, institutional, academic, military, marine, mobile and your use! Products include: compact 1 & 2 burner cook tops in 120 or 240 volts, expansive and powerful 36†5-burner units with 17†tri-zone oval bridge burner, state-of-the-art 2 & 4-burner Lite-Touch units that by design are sans knobs and mount flush into the countertop for simply elegant clean-up!, and ventilation hoods designed to compliment and co-ordinate in 24-36†width, both ducted and non-ducted, in wall mount and in-cabinet styles. Plus portable 1 burner butane stoves for caterers and storm preparedness.
