Blue Marmalade is a Scottish based company specialising in creating environmentally sound contemporary furniture and products and providing these skills to other companies.

The unusual name originates from two of the firmly held beliefs of the founding directors: First of all, the excellence of the British design and manufacturing heritage and the desire to support the quality and integrity that still exists in British manufacturing. These are qualities that Blue Marmalade looks for in all its products. And what is more British than marmalade? Secondly: originality, imagination, fun and the ability to create simple things with a unique twist. So it is a company as unique as blue marmalade, British with a twist.

The company has run under the direction of Trent Jennings and Tom Marsh. Both are designers with complementary experience.
Trent has a firm grounding in fine cabinet making and has since gained experience in mechanical, corporate and exhibition design with a wealth of construction and manufacturing knowledge. Tom also gained a grounding in furniture design after giving up science. He has since acquired expertise in executive office and boardroom furniture design. Together their wide knowledge, skills and imagination create Blue Marmalade’s strong visual image and environmental ethos.

Blue Marmalade’s guiding principal is to create and produce products that reflect its designer’s passions: simplicity, fun, functionality & eco – friendliness. All our products are easy to assemble and disassemble, making them not just easy to put together but also making it easy to break them down into their components at the end of their lives for recycling. Our strength is the imaginative use of materials and clever construction techniques to create good looking and clever items. We not only design interior products but also can custom design promotional materials and gifts for corporate events and publicity. All our product design skills are for hire to companies who want to add a fresh flavour to their operations.
