Bristle Brushes: The History of BeeGee Brushes UK

By manufacturing bristle brushes in the UK since the mid-1980's, BeeGee Brushes have achieved a rich history that compliments the high quality bristle brushes, paint brushes and other forms of DIY products we've provided to professionals and domestic users over the years.

Having worked as Production Manager for LG Harris for over 25 years since 1960, Bee Gee’s Managing Director Mr Wilf Goddard had gained wide experience in the manufacture of many types of paint and bristle brushes. Mr Goddard decided to open his own manufacturing plant with his son Richard in 1985, their aim being to produce fine quality decorating and bristle brushes that are totally British Made.

Originally supplying just 6 independent shops with a steady flow of hand made quality brushes Mr Goddard has developed the business to supplying wholesalers, small retailers and other major manufacturers as well. Bee Gee moved to larger premises and increased manpower in 1991 in order to keep up with the increased production for their main core hand-made professional quality decorating bristle brushes of all types.

Bee Gee Ltd is now proud to be supplying their products all around the world. Going forward Mr Goddard recognises the professional decorator’s need for quality paint and bristle brushes at reasonable prices and is concentrating much time and study into research and development to expand the business and our DIY products further.

As well as the high quality paint and bristle brushes that UK based Bee Gee provide, their range of decorating products also includes a wide range of DIY decorating tools, equipment and accessories. They supply Private Label and although this brings no recognition, Mr Goddard is satisfied that all paint and bristle brushes made by UK based Bee Gee are of the highest quality, give ultimate satisfaction to the user which will ensure the continued supply and repeat business to the professional and domestic DIY market.
