IN 1984, THIS COMPANY WAS ESTABLISHED
The HINSON family business was founded in 1984. We produce high quality, tailor-made products from our Milton Keynes workshop by skilled master craftsmen. Our customers can choose their own products from our selection.
A HINSON visit will not be accompanied by a salesman with years of experience working with timber and the joinery trade. It will be one of the owners and a hands-on Joiner himself, ready to provide you with advice and guidance on your project
Offering a personal and professional service while taking into account all of your objectives.

A SUSTAINABLE SOCIETY.
Despite the impact we have on the environment, we want our customers to know that the role we play is sustainable. There is less environmental impact associated with wood products than with plastic alternatives. According to the International Institute for Environment and Development and Edinburgh for Carbon Management:
It is estimated that 97% of softwood timber used in the UK comes from Europe, whose forest area is growing by the equivalent of three football fields every hour.
The timber used by HINSON is from a replenished source. The following companies hold memberships in our timber supplier program:
Council for the Stewardship of Forests (FSC).
Forest Certification Program (PEFC).
Timber expertise center (CPET).
