Join us on a nostalgic journey as we reflect on the milestones, challenges, and triumphs that have defined our journey from humble beginnings to industry leaders. From our founding vision to our present-day achievements, Maxwood Washrooms forty years of experience is testament to the dedication, resilience, and unwavering commitment of our team and stakeholders.
40 years of Maxwood Washrooms
Going back to our roots,
Hebert McMullan, Grandfather of the current directors, was
well-acquainted with joinery.
He taught his son, David, how to French polish from an early age.
1958
David’s son, Mark, became a fully-qualified cabinet maker and worked in a small workshop, creating timeless and bespoke furniture for professionals. The business was named Warwickshire Woodcraft.
1982
The second brother, Robin, joined the business, bringing experience of the construction industry. Warwickshire Woodcraft then evolved to manufacturing decorative laminate panels.
1988
Maxwood focused in on washrooms, offering quality toilet cubicles to all sectors.
1989
We moved premises and the ‘Maxwood’ brand was born. We changed the name from Warwickshire Woodcraft to be more in line with the market we were in.
1993
Due to continual expansion, Maxwood moved premises again to Bodmin Road.
The youngest brother, Rolf, joined and started as production operative.
1998
Maxwood changed from its original logo to an ‘M’ to strengthen the washroom brand.
2003
Maxwood incorporated into a limited company – Maxwood Washrooms Ltd.
Offering a full supply and install package for high-end commercial washrooms in London, built to survive in a hustling office environment.
2012
Due to our quality high-end progression, we decided to rebrand further. The stunning gold Maxwood logo was introduced, reflecting our golden values and our golden service.
2018
The Covid pandemic struck.
But Maxwood could weather the storm, providing urgent assistance to those in need.
We sprang into action by offering products to a wide range of organisations, including the famous Nightingale hospitals and the emergency Covid wards of The Royal London hospital.
2020
We’re now celebrating forty years in business and we have a fantastic team with a fantastic future!
