Introduction to Millboard and Envello
In a world where global supply chains are the norm, locally crafted products that champion quality, integrity, and craftsmanship hold a unique place of honour. Millboard embodies these values through its decking and Envello cladding collections, which bring together British design, innovation, and dedication to create products of unmatched quality. Based in the heart of Warwickshire, every Millboard product is developed, manufactured, and perfected in the UK—a testament to our commitment to British craftsmanship.
Holding the Made in Britain accreditation, Millboard is more than just a decking and cladding brand; it is a proud symbol of British manufacturing at its finest. With a steadfast commitment to local sourcing, responsible production, and community support, Millboard products are crafted to bring timeless beauty, durability, and value to outdoor spaces.
British Craftsmanship and Local Manufacturing
Every Millboard product is crafted with the philosophy that form and function should go hand-in-hand. At our Warwickshire facility, artisans and engineers work together to create boards that replicate the natural beauty of timber while offering enhanced durability and performance. Unlike many composite decking options, Millboard boards are hand-moulded from real timber, capturing the intricate wood grain and texture that make each board unique.
The combination of our patented Lastane® surface and fibre-reinforced resin core provides exceptional slip resistance, UV stability, and resilience against the elements. This meticulous attention to detail ensures that every Millboard board not only looks authentic but also performs exceptionally well over time. By choosing Millboard, customers receive a product that reflects British ingenuity and commitment to quality.
Our Warwickshire facility stocks ample product reserves, allowing us to dispatch orders quickly across the UK. This commitment to availability ensures that customers have timely access to Millboard products, minimising wait times and keeping projects on track.
Customer Care and Product Support
At Millboard, customer satisfaction goes beyond delivering quality products—it extends to every aspect of the customer experience. Our UK-based support team in Warwickshire is dedicated to helping customers every step of the way, from product selection to installation advice. Whether you need guidance on choosing the perfect colour, understanding the difference between Enhanced Grain and Weathered Oak collections, or exploring installation techniques, our knowledgeable team is here to assist.
Millboard’s comprehensive, UK-backed warranties are another cornerstone of our commitment to customer assurance. We stand behind the durability and craftsmanship of our decking and cladding products, offering warranties that provide long-term security and peace of mind. This approach ensures that when you invest in Millboard, you’re not only purchasing a premium product but also gaining support from a brand that cares about your satisfaction.
