Celebrating Black Country Day 2021 #BCDay2021

Robinson Brothers is pleased to recognise Black Country Day on 14th July - an event supported by the Black Country Chamber of Commerce.

Situated in West Bromwich since 1869, Robinson Brothers is proud to be part of the Black Country region known for its manufacturing heritage. Originally founded by three brothers: William Leckie Robinson, James Henry Robinson and Charles R. Robinson, Robinson Brothers has remained as a family-owned chemical manufacturer whilst growing and reacting to the ever-evolving chemical industry.

From its inception, the business has adapted to changing market trends. Robinson Brothers initially operated gas works throughout the UK. When local government took over the gas works, the brothers moved into tar distillation. After the tar works were absorbed by another business, they turned to chemical manufacturing. In the 1960s, the company began supplying gas odorant, which gives natural gas and biogas its distinctive smell. Robinson Brothers also started manufacturing fine chemical intermediates for use in drugs such as Tagamet and Zantac. The company now manufactures speciality/fine chemicals, nitrosamine-safer rubber accelerators and high impact aroma chemicals.

With a diverse product range, Robinson Brothers has carved out a niche within the industry. “Customers recognise our integrity, longevity, track record, phenomenal knowledge, drive for innovation and agility. Our greatest strength is our people, who have a tremendous work ethic and commitment to excellence”, said Adrian Hanrahan, Managing Director.

Responsiveness, flexibility and agility are key factors contributing to the company’s success. Today, over 70 per cent of products are exported to industries across the world. Robinson Brothers has become a reputable supplier to the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, life science, automotive, toys, medical devices, cosmetics, food & beverage and general chemical industry.

Robinson Brothers is proud to be a member of the Chemical Industries Association (CIA), European Fine Chemicals Group (EFCG) and Black Country Chamber of Commerce. The company supports causes that encourage the growth of UK trading and the export of chemicals.

Robinson Brothers was awarded Black Country Chamber of Commerce Family Business of the Year Award, 2020.
