The History of Henshaw
Where it all began
Henshaw's humble beginnings started in 1974, founded in the heart of Southampton. Henshaw has a history of building the worlds highest quality inflatables. With 50 years in the business, you could say we know a thing or two. We have worked on bespoke projects for movies and TV, provided projects to governments and defence agencies globally, and will offer custom and bespoke solutions to both the leisure and commercial markets. Our family of team members continues to grow as we look forward to many more years to come, entering our 5th decade in operation.
What the future holds
As we head into our 50th year in 2024, the future looks bright for Henshaw. Our team continues to grow, and the success of our brand and products thrives worldwide. As an OEM inflatable manufacturer and a commercial RIB tube manufacturer and re-fitter, we continue to diversify beyond our core inflatable products, offering an expanding range that includes foam-constructed stern fenders and collars, hybrid builds, PU-sprayed products, and a wide array of drop-stitch solutions. Investment in new technologies such as 3D scanning allows us to capture greater accuracy both in the field and at HQ, while customer service, quality, and excellence remain at the forefront of everything we deliver.
