Plantation Shutters

About

Plantation Shutters Ltd was established in 1982 and is proud to be the first shutter company in the UK. Robert James took the company over in 1995 and since then the company has grown to be one of the UK’s largest suppliers of traditional interior louvred wooden shutters.

The shutter market has changed dramatically, in 1995 there were 3 or 4 companies selling plantation shutters. Most of the product was manufactured in the States and imported, which at the time was the only choice that any of us had. Since then the shutter manufacturing progressed to some companies manufacturing in the UK and some in various countries around the world. The UK manufactures were on the whole very proficient but lacked a truly large scale operation and the research and development necessary to really grow the shutter market in the U.K.
