MAKER:
Founded in 1945 by Ernest Bevin, the Minister for Labour, Remploy began life with the opening of the first factory in 1946 in Bridgend, South Wales. First into production was a range of furniture and violas, and the company’s original workforce was made up mainly of disabled ex-miners. In 1946, the factory network was growing, and the company renamed themselves Remploy, taken from the literal term ‘re-employ’. The Second World War was over by this point, and soldiers were returning home, many badly disabled and scarred from war – Remploy provided them with employment, and the ability to function in the recovering country. Remploy furniture is starkly utilitarian, full of clean lines and simple design. Using standard techniques, they manufactured no-frills furniture which was built to be used and made to last – from uncomplicated sideboards and room dividers to tubular stacking chairs, Remploy furniture was designed to be simply functional.
