Rowlinson Group, based in Wardle near Nantwich, is marking its 100th anniversary with the launch of a centenary campaign celebrating a century of heritage, craftsmanship and innovation.

Founded in 1926 as a timber sales agency in Manchester, the family-owned business has grown into a global operation spanning multiple specialist brands across the timber industry.

The company is using the milestone to highlight the role of its subsidiaries within the wider timber ecosystem.

Its flagship consumer arm, Rowlinson Garden Products, is a major UK manufacturer and importer known for designs such as shiplap sheds and modern garden rooms.

Rowlinson Packaging, established in 1966, supplies timber packaging solutions including pallets and wire-bound containers for sectors such as automotive, technology and defence.

Chairman of Rowlinson Group, Jimmy Rowlinson, told Nub News: "Reaching our 100th year is a moment of immense pride for our family and employees

"From my grandfather's first timber yard in 1926 to our current focus on sustainable manufacturing and carbon reduction, we have always been defined by the quality and design of our wooden products and the strength of our relationships.

"This campaign is a tribute to the craftsmanship that has sustained us for a century and the innovation that will carry us through the next one."

Headquartered on a 20-acre site in South Cheshire, the business remains family-owned, with operations spanning manufacturing, importing and e-commerce, and a continued focus on sustainable timber use and British craftsmanship..
