ABOUT BARLOW TYRIE
It’s 2015 and we are celebrating our 95th anniversary of manufacturing exceptional
outdoor furnishings! A third generation English company started in 1920 by Frederick
Barlow and Victor Tyrie, Barlow Tyrie is the oldest manufacturer of teakwood outdoor
furniture. Today we offer luxurious furnishings in plantation grown teakwood (along
with FSC certified Eucalyptus on our shade products), stainless steel, virgin
aluminum and all-weather hand woven resin. Our international reputation is built, in
part, upon our attention to design details and design purity. We are the recipient of
sixteen international design recognition awards. Here, the furniture matters, because
the family name is on each piece.
Peter Tyrie, son of founder Victor, is the Managing Director of this small British
family-owned and managed business. Sons Mark and James, who are also Directors
of the company, have been largely responsible for the new designs.
Barlow Tyrie Ltd. is located in Braintree, Essex, England, about one and a half hours
northeast of London. The Braintree factory still manufactures many of the company’s
classic designs.
P.T. Barlow Tyrie is located in Indonesia and processes plantation grown, sustained
source teak. This is achieved by cutting the timber in our saw mill, drying (kilning) the
timber and machining the wood into the hundreds of individual components from
which our furnishings are then made. We control all steps of the manufacturing
process. Only the finest grade of teakwood is used. Many of our products are made
in our Indonesian plant including our stainless steel and aluminum furnishings as well
as our Market umbrellas and shade products.
Barlow Tyrie USA is located in historic Moorestown, New Jersey. All marketing and
distribution to the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean basin are
managed through this location.
