Dragons’ Den Tracker

The Pitch

David and Max Gattie walked into the Den in 2018 with a draft reducing air ventilation for woodburners and gas appliances. They were asking for £40,000 in exchange for 20% of the business.

Despite their best efforts, the pitch didn’t convince the Dragons to open their wallets.

The Deal

No deal was made. The Dragons weren’t persuaded to invest, and David and Max Gattie left the Den without backing.

What Happened After the Show

DR21: Draft Reducing Air Venilations is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show in 2018, the business has now been trading for over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.

Is DR21: Draft Reducing Air Venilations Still Available?

Yes. DR21 Ltd appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
