Built by Tradesmen for Tradesmen
FOCO Workshop was founded in Hooton, Cheshire by two trade professionals who knew exactly what the industry was missing — a panel cutting and processing business that put quality and reliability above everything else.
A gap in the Market
Ben and Rick spent years working in the trades, completing projects for customers who expected the best. Time and again, sourcing precision-cut panels and processed boards meant dealing with suppliers who couldn’t match the standard their work demanded — inconsistent cuts, poor edgebanding, unreliable lead times.
After one too many jobs held up by substandard materials, they decided to do something about it. FOCO Workshop was the result — a trade-focused business built from the ground up with quality at its core and real tradespeople in mind.
Based at Hooton Works in Cheshire, the workshop is equipped with professional-grade machinery including a HPC 300 Beamsaw, OTT Edgebander and Gannomat Protec CNC, giving customers access to the kind of precision and finish that simply wasn’t available locally before.
