The story behind palletbros.

Started in 2015, PalletBros of Manchester came about from two friends sharing a love of wood working and fabrication. We had the idea to make use of otherwise scrap pallet wood, hence the name! We have come a long way since those those early days, and now focus on high quality hard woods, salvaging reclaimed materials where possible.

We hand craft all of our products in our workshop in Saddleworth, Greater Manchester. From initial concept and design, to carpentry and fabrication, almost all* of the manufacturing proccess is done in-house. So, you can take comfort in knowing you are supporting a truly local small business.

*While we’d love to be able to do it all, sometimes we need to lean on local specialists for their expertise, like colour finishing our steel legs.
