MARK are delighted to announce that they are joining forces with fellow British brand, Bisley – an exciting collaboration between one of the UK’s oldest furniture brands and one of the youngest.
Bisley has made a significant investment in MARK Product to enable it to expand its reach within the workplace, as well as enabling an enhanced product development journey with a focus on sustainable soft seating and outdoor furniture.
With an enviable history of over 80 years as a British manufacturer Bisley is an organisation that share our values and aspirations for the future.
Co-founder of MARK Product, Anna Harts says:
“It’s always been a driving force for us to design furniture that we can confidently stand by in regard to the ethics and values of its production and lifecycle, therefore partnering with Bisley as a progressive, heritage brand will enable us to build more extensively on this core foundation.”
“This is an exciting opportunity to take the best of both companies when it comes to sustainability. MARK have built a reputation as a smaller disruptor in the industry through our ‘Do Net Good’ mission, championing social value and campaigning on issues like foam in furniture. “ adds Co-founder John Miller,“Bisley through their size, reach and reputation have a powerful voice in the industry. Their ‘Made for Life’ approach and ambitious Net Zero aim align well with our ethos.’
Richard Costin, CEO of Bisley comments,
“Bisley is delighted to invest and continue its diversification into new product areas, specifically soft seating and outdoor furniture, which we believe has huge potential both in the UK and overseas. Bisley’s rich heritage combined with our ambition to innovate and diversify mean that MARK is a fantastic brand to partner with; we both believe in furniture that is ‘Made for Life’.
“Although storage products manufactured in steel and wood will continue to be at the heart of what Bisley do, strategically Bisley continues to diversify into a sector that does not compete with our main customers and that perfectly complements our product portfolio. We also intend to work with MARK to produce a list of specific ranges for the Bisley’s consumer sites.”
