the GardenSkill Story Where we came from, where we are today and where we're going next...
How GardenSkill began with one product GardenSkill actually started life more than 40 years ago as a rubber moulding company specialising in the automotive industry (at the time we were known as Essential Equipment).
In the early 2000s a company approached us to manufacture a mysterious green ball used in the construction of fruit cages. This turned out to be the well-known Build-a-Ball - one of the UK's most popular gardening products.
How we grew our gardening business As keen gardeners ourselves, we soon realised that what many gardeners wanted were products like the Build-a-Ball - products that were simple, well-made and "did what they said on the tin". So we started to make not just the balls but the fruit cages to go along with them - tubes, pegs, garden netting, the whole shebang. Keeping the family name, we called it the Build-a-Cage.
