The crest shows a Dragon (also from the arms of The Society of Coal Merchants) holding up a collier brig derived from the armorial bearings of The Society of Coal Factors. The Dragon emerges from a ‘Crown Rayonne’, a crown or coronet the finials of which are in the form of rays thereby suggesting heat and energy. The crown is tinctured gules, red, from the Arms of The Society of Coal Merchants and standing for The Coal Meters Committee, which joined with the two other Societies in the founding of The Fuellers and which, not having any arms of its own, would not otherwise be represented heraldically.

The supporters have a carboniferous quality in that they are depicted sable, black, the colour of coal and crude oil and are in other respects heraldically appropriate to represent The Fuellers. The Dexter Supporter is a ‘Caretyne’ the name of which ‘Care Tyne’, suggests that the Tyne, or the area of the Tyne, where coal was produced should be safeguarded. The Caretyne and the Panther, on our shield are always, in heraldry, depicted with flames coming from their ears and jaws thus reflecting the interest that The Fuellers have in the production of heat, energy and light. <br>
