Crittall Brothers Visit Crittall New HQ

Crittall Brothers, Charles and Francis, visit Crittall HQ and Factory on 22 September

Following their mother's visit for the Queens Award for Enterprise presentation ceremony, the board and management team were delighted to welcome Charles and Francis Crittall, the sons of John and Ariel Crittall. John was the last member of the Crittall family to be Managing Director of our company.

As a young man, Francis worked in the company, and was delighted to see the traditional techniques still in use alongside modern machinery. He said, "In a way, not much has changed, apart from the finish, which is simply superb."

Charles is a furniture designer, and he was responsible for the design of part of our fittings range. He said "I came away positively uplifted, and with a strong feeling, shared with my mother, that my father would have been proud and delighted to see the business, which meant so much to him, and us all, now prospering and in good hands."
