2025: Celebrating 35 Years of Handcrafted Garden Furniture
Posted on September 17, 2025
In 2025, Woodcraft UK proudly marks its 35th anniversary, a significant milestone that reflects its journey from a modest beginning to a leading manufacturer of high-quality wooden garden furniture. Founded in 1990 by Michael Davidson, the company has consistently evolved, adapting to market demands while maintaining a commitment to craftsmanship and quality.
A Journey Through Time
Initially, Woodcraft UK specialised in creating charming items such as rocking horses, doll's houses, and various gifts and trinkets. However, as the demand for outdoor furniture began to rise, the company recognised an opportunity to pivot its focus. This strategic shift allowed Woodcraft UK to expand its product offerings and solidify its reputation as a manufacturer of traditionally constructed furniture.
Product Range Expansion
Over the years, Woodcraft UK has diversified its product line to include a wide array of garden furniture, such as:
- Wooden memorial benches
- Designer garden benches
- Garden tables
- Pergolas
- Gazebos
- Cabins and shelters
- Bollards and noticeboards
- Timber bollards and finger posts
This extensive range not only caters to the aesthetic needs of gardens but also addresses functional requirements, making Woodcraft UK a go-to choice for homeowners and organisations alike.

Bespoke Offerings
One of the standout features of Woodcraft UK is its ability to provide bespoke garden furniture. The demand for customised pieces has outstripped that for our standard range, with a particular focus on made-to-measure garden benches. These benches come in various sizes, styles, and shapes, allowing customers to find the perfect fit for their outdoor spaces.
A Global Reach with Local Roots
Today, Woodcraft UK serves a diverse clientele, including large organisations and companies from around the globe. Despite this international presence, the company remains deeply connected to its roots, prioritising the needs of the UK homeowner and their garden bench requirements. This commitment ensures that every piece of furniture not only meets high standards of quality but also resonates with the values of local customers.
Woodcraft Today
As Woodcraft UK celebrates its 35th anniversary, it reflects on a legacy built on craftsmanship, innovation, and a deep understanding of customer needs. The journey from a small venture to a prominent manufacturer is a testament to the company's dedication to quality and service. Looking ahead, Woodcraft UK is poised to continue its tradition of excellence, crafting beautiful and functional garden furniture for years to come.
This anniversary is not just a celebration of the past but also a promise for the future, as Woodcraft UK remains committed to enhancing outdoor spaces with its handcrafted creations.
See you on our 40th birthday!
