Anglian: Six Decades at the Heart of Britain’s Home Improvement Industry

Last Updated: August 26, 2025By Tags: ,

For nearly 60 years, Anglian has been a defining name in the UK’s home improvements sector, setting benchmarks for quality, craftsmanship and customer care. Since its foundation in 1966, the company’s ethos has remained unchanged: deliver exceptional products, backed by genuine service, so that customers return time and again.

The first milestone came in 1969, when Anglian opened its debut showroom in Ipswich, showcasing distinctive window designs that quickly became a hallmark of the brand. From there, growth was swift. Today, with showrooms nationwide and state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, Anglian continues to lead the market in windows, doors and conservatories.

In 2023, the company expanded its reach further, becoming part of the ASHI Group, reinforcing its position as the UK’s No. 1 home improvement provider. More British homes are upgraded by Anglian than by any other company—a testament to its reputation for delivering both quality and value.

Built on Standards, Backed by Trust.

Anglian’s products proudly carry the Made in Britain marque, a guarantee of manufacturing in UK facilities to the most exacting standards. Security is equally paramount: its uPVC casement and tilt & turn windows are accredited by Secured by Design, the official police initiative to improve building security.

Memberships in leading trade associations, including the Glass and Glazing Federation, FENSA, and TrustMark, further underscore the company’s commitment to best practice. Many products not only meet but exceed British and EU standards, while certifications from the British Board of Agrément—unique in the industry for the entire White Knight Conservatory range—demonstrate long-term reliability.

Investing in People.

Anglian’s pursuit of excellence extends beyond products to the teams who install them. Alongside rigorous in-house training, the company supports its installers in achieving NVQ qualifications in window and door fitting, ensuring skills remain at the highest level.

From its beginnings in Ipswich to its nationwide presence today, Anglian has remained steadfast in its mission: to enhance Britain’s homes with quality, style, and security—built to last for generations.
