ALLENBY GLASS LIMITED

What ALLENBY GLASS LIMITED does

Allenby Glass Limited is a family-run glass manufacturer established in October 1997 and headquartered at 22 Deacon Road, Lincoln, Lincolnshire (LN2 4JB), with its production operations based at a purpose-built factory on Bishops Road, Lincoln, occupied since January 2012. The company's core business is the manufacture of double-glazed sealed units for uPVC window companies, which it identifies as its primary B2B customer segment. It extends this manufacturing base into a portfolio of made-to-measure products for retail and trade customers, including Georgian window units, greenhouse glass, kitchen and bathroom splashbacks (24 standard colours with custom colour matching), mirrors, bespoke coloured and bevelled glass, glass shelving, toughened glass, and window films.

Manufacturing uses Swisspacer V Ultimate warm edge spacer bars and argon gas filling in its sealed units for thermal efficiency, with raw glass and ancillary products sourced from Pilkington, Saint-Gobain, Magden, and RegaLead. The factory is equipped with modern CNC cutting and toughening equipment and offers a same-day turnaround for urgent simple cuts. An in-house designer supports bespoke coloured, leaded, and bevelled work.

Commercially, Allenby Glass operates a direct-to-customer sales model with no resellers, distributors, or marketplace listings. Pricing is quote-based on every order; no price list is published and free samples and colour brochures are available on request. Customers reach the company by phone (01522 539719), email ([email protected]), or an online quote form on allenbyglass.com. The 13-person workforce draws on more than 30 years of collective industry experience, and marketing is driven primarily by the company website, local search presence, and word-of-mouth referrals within Lincoln and Lincolnshire. The company is privately held with no disclosed investors, parent entity, funding rounds, or revenue figures, and its operating footprint is limited to the United Kingdom, principally the East Midlands.

Direct peers

• Romag: UK glass manufacturer specialising in laminated, toughened, and security glass products. Comparable to Allenby in its bespoke and processed glass capabilities and in serving both trade and specialist end customers.
• Clayton Glass: UK glass sealed unit manufacturer serving trade window companies and retailers. Closely comparable to Allenby in core product (insulated glass units), B2B trade customer base, and made-to-measure service model, though operating at significantly larger scale.
• Tuffx Glass: UK specialist in toughened and processed glass products for residential and trade customers. Comparable to Allenby's toughened glass, mirrors, and glass shelving offerings, with overlapping customer profiles.
• Cornish Glass: Independent UK glass manufacturer producing sealed units and processed glass products for trade and retail customers. Closely aligned with Allenby on product mix (sealed units, splashbacks, mirrors, toughened glass) and customer segments.

Broad incumbents

• Saint-Gobain Glass: Major European glass manufacturer and a stated supplier to Allenby. Comparable as a broad incumbent producing flat glass, coated glass and components used in sealed units that compete in the same downstream value chain.
• Glassolutions: Saint-Gobain's UK glass fabrication and distribution arm producing sealed units, processed glass, and architectural glazing. Overlaps directly with Allenby's core double-glazed sealed unit offering but operates nationally at much greater scale and as part of a broader building-products portfolio.
• Pilkington (NSG Group): One of the world's largest flat glass manufacturers and a stated supplier to Allenby. Comparable as a broader incumbent in the same glass category but operating at vastly greater scale across primary glass production rather than purely fabrication.
