About Us
Marwood Group Ltd is one of the UK's leading specialists in non-mechanical plant hire, sales, and service, with over 45 years of experience supplying the construction, civil engineering, and infrastructure sectors. From groundworks and excavation to road traffic management and goods handling, we provide the equipment that keeps Britain's building sites moving safely and efficiently.
What sets Marwood apart is our commitment to owning the full supply chain. Rather than simply reselling third-party products, we manufacture our own. Our steel fabrication facility, Railtec Engineering, designs and builds our range of structural and lifting equipment, while our plastics factory, Europalite, produces our market-leading range of plastic barriers and traffic demarcation products. This vertical integration gives us direct control over quality, lead times, and customisation.
Customers can specify bespoke colours, dimensions, or configurations, and our in-house CAD and engineering teams will make it happen.
Our hire and sales range spans three core categories: Goods Handling and Forklift Equipment, Groundworks and General Plant, and Roads and Fencing. Whether you need trench boxes, road crossing plates, crane skips, concrete safety barriers, or ground protection matting, our nationwide fleet is ready to mobilise from 18 depots and manufacturing sites across the UK.
Quality and compliance are central to everything we do. We are individually accredited to ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 across all our sites, and we hold Achilles Building in Confidence, UVDB Silver Plus, RISQS, and Constructionline Gold accreditations. We are also full members of the British Plastics Federation, keeping us at the forefront of materials innovation and sustainability practice.
On-site support comes as standard. We offer free site surveys, no-obligation product training, and full equipment refurbishment services for customers' own assets.
At Marwood Group, reliability is not a promise. It is the foundation on which every hire, every sale, and every service call is built.
If you work in groundworks, civil engineering, utilities, or construction, Marwood Group understands the pressures you face on site. Deadlines are tight, conditions are unpredictable, and the last thing you need is equipment that lets you down or a supplier that takes three days to answer the phone. That is why trade customers across the UK rely on Marwood for fast access to the right kit, backed by people who know what they are talking about.
Our 18 depots are spread strategically across the country, meaning whether you are working on a city centre utilities contract, a major road scheme, or a groundworks package on a new housing development, there is a Marwood location within reach. On-the-road representatives supplement our depot network, so if you need a site survey, a product demonstration, or a same-day solution to an unexpected problem, we can get someone to you.
Trade accounts are available with straightforward credit terms, and our team is set up to handle everything from a single item hire to a full project supply package. We also think longer term. If your business regularly needs bespoke equipment, whether that is a custom lifting attachment, a branded barrier system, or a one-off fabrication that nobody else stocks, Marwood's manufacturing capability means we can design and build it. Over the years we have become a trusted supply partner to some of the UK's largest contractors, not just because our products are built to last, but because we treat every trade relationship as a long-term one. Get in touch, tell us what you need, and let's get to work.
